Bronze on metal
Signed on the back.
I have not seen my country, and family in Latvia for four years. I needed to process this grief. Connecting with the stories of the First People of Australia helped.
See a “Mother”, holding a new life. What will it be like?
Reaching up towards the stars, gives me hope.
An Indigenous friend once told me: "We are all a "Stolen Generation". We are all displaced and disconnected from the Land.“
Aren't we all the same? Bleeding red, heart beating synchronized with the Earth itself, doing our best to find the way “home”.
The ancient traditions of my country of origin embody similar values as those of the First People of Australia, treasured for thousands of years. Our bodies are of the Earth. The sculpture ensemble “Exodus” represents our connection to the Spirit of Land. The Land is of the utmost fundamental for all living beings. From the remnants of the past emerged an impression - a portrait of the people from this Land.
"Exodus" limited edition(/20) bronze sculptures are available for commission. Please allow minimum of 4 weeks production time.
