Stones and Bones, Seeds and Pods, softened by the rolling waves, blown and rooted by the winds and rain.

assuredly and snugly on top of the firm strength of the‘Yang’. Together they strive for their future.

Unfailing in her seasonal regularity, inspirational Mother Earth re-generates life of diversity and difference.

Every nuance of shape, colour, form and texture. In richness of fields; sprinkles of glisteningsands; depths of translucent seas and rhythmic running waters she is the bearer of life.
In this sculpture, the circular bronze disc with its imprinted regular pattern arises from the solid rock of granite displaying its femininity with the placing of the
seed pod. Alongside, but independently, a harmonious miniature disc sprouts from stone, rolled smooth by  the unending waves of the sea.
