“I have to say it is my favorite piece in this show. The energy emanating from it gives one chills. An Ancestral being’s arms are outstretched as it embraces orbiting planets, movement is created through the use of Gesso. And, talk about movement…the back of the sculpture is clearly the universe, meteors, spirits-or are they souls?- moving through space. In this view, the ancestral being appears to be in flight with these objects…they are one.”
