Phoenix |
|
In the sculptor's words...The legend of the
Phoenix can be traced all the way back to ancient Egypt and the book of the dead.
The Phoenix was the only one of its kind and, at the end of its life, (generally
believed to be 500 years) would build a pyre of spice twigs and set itself aflame, only to
be reborn in youth and vigor. As an artist, I am drawn to themes of
resurrection and immortality. This Phoenix is an elegant symbol of
self-perpetuation. In a way, sculpting in bronze is a way of continuing after I'm
gone, as my work continues to influence and bring joy to others.
