California Art Club - 115th Annual Gold Medal Exhibition: Liberty, Freedom Bound
Liberty, bronze, 30 x 14 x 12"
As a young female born in the twentieth century, I have grown up in a man's world where women are finally coming to power sitting as equals with men. But, I've learned that long ago we once held that same seat; we were appreciated, empowered and even considered sacred. I have lost a history that I never knew. I have lost a power that I could have had. I have lost a family that I should have felt. We have repressed a magic source of nature just because we could not measure it. I hope we will become a society that no longer covers up who we are, but discovers who we were meant to be.
Freedom Bound, bronze, 21 x 28 x 12"
A relationship is merely a series of threads woven by two people. Eventually an entire tapestry can wrap us together and become a foundation. Yet, as we grow together we must also grow independently. Freedom Bound is about stretching the ties that we weave to remain individuals. We can spread our wings and a metamorphosis begins. A bind often begets the desire for freedom, and freedom often begets rebirth.
Exhibition will take place at:
