We spring from our mothers; nurtured and protected by their embrace; our stories interwoven as our paths criss-cross through time. We grow, developing our own individuality and trajectory, but the link to our place of origin always remains.
I made this piece at the time of my mother’s passing, and it remains, for me, a poignant reminder of that connection, although with the benefit of hindsight, I see that it has more to do with the joy of escaping her sphere of influence than the connection between us.
