~About This Piece
These reflections are but one interpretation; the artwork itself invites your personal vision.
Ninth in The Oracle of Feathers series, this piece features a crowned bird resting atop a worn work boot, surrounded by a cracked eggshell, a chained wedding band, and a skeleton key. Each element reflects a life shaped by labor, love, and transformation: the boot speaks to years of dedication; the wedding band to enduring bonds; the eggshell to new beginnings; and the key to unlocking what lies ahead. This work honors the journey — from commitment to release, from effort to insight.
