Therapeutic Art
Some clients are wanting to process something emotionally through the piece. Making something painful into something beautiful can help one process, move stuck grief, and heal.
Rising from the ashes
The first piece, with the caged bird, was built using inspiration from painful memories. It was designed to be burned.
We burned the piece together on the beach. Ashes and whatever metal survived was collected. I then incorporated those elements into the second piece. The golden urn holds the ashes from the first piece.
