Free

I created my Free series to celebrate the moment we finally break free from inner oppression and obstacles; the moment we say “enough is enough” and break out, shed our skin and begin anew as our higher, authentic self escapes those boundaries and flies away free.  The outer crate or box symbolizes deeper exploration of our feelings that may reveal how we would either present ourselves with a beautiful facade to the outside world, or lock ourselves away to be neglected or forgotten altogether. Features like broken floorboards, aging, warped or cracked edges conjure feelings of neglect and abandonment while inside reveals loneliness and yearning, counting down time until the moment we leave it all behind to reveal our newly released spirit.
