About the artwork

Under the pale light of the full moon, a woman shrouded in a black cloak stands. Her face is hidden behind a weathered deer skull crowned with broad antlers. In her hands, she carries a golden ball of light - a symbol of soul power, inner fire and mystery.
My inspiration for this work comes from the idea that every person carries a shadow side - and that true strength lies in acknowledging it.
The woman in this sculpture is not a threat, but a sentinel. She protects the ritual, the unseen and the unspoken. This scene evokes calm as well as awe and is a powerful focal point in any space where depth and symbolism are welcome.
