"Unfinished #1" Limited edition print
"Unfinished #1" Limited edition print
While I was consumed with the task of putting all my pieces back together, my chicks have grown, and nearly flown, my nest almost empty; my life, body and soul finally beginning to feel whole, but the satisfaction is bittersweet - wishing I could have been in this state of wholeness while my chicks were little, so that they might have felt the full-bodied joy and confidence of a mother in right relationship with herself.
The fragile origami birds on delicate golden threads suggest the echoes of the tiny people every mother has to be at peace with letting go of, as they grow and each new version of their little beings means the loss of the previous stage. We all enter into motherhood unfinished articles; the ways in which we are compelled to step up for our children, to be better people, to make peace with ourselves, is what makes being a mother such a transformative experience.

Care instructions
Care instructions
Please do not leave your order in packaging for long periods. Packaging may get damp on its journey to you, causing the tape adhesive to leach and creating some discolouration around the edges of the print. This has happened in a VERY tiny proportions of orders (less than 0.03%!), but I would hate for it to happen to any more. To be on the safe side, make sure your print is removed from its packaging as soon as it is practical to do so, and stored in a dry place out of direct sunlight. The archival inks will not fade but it's always a better idea to keep artwork out of direct sunlight.
