This piece is not a depiction, but a space for feeling. It is an attempt to capture the quiet paradox of the winter solstice: a celebration of light born from the deepest dark.
The rising embers are the inner warmth we cultivate—memory, hope, and the spark of community. As you move through the space, you stir this fire, a reminder that our presence brings its own light.
The gentle snow represents the silence, the sacred pause of the year turning over. It softens the world, inviting introspection. The evergreens stand as quiet symbols of life's endurance, while the cool light of the moon hangs in balance with the fire—a silent witness to these endless cycles.
My hope is that you find a moment of peace here, a quiet space to reflect on the darkness and the light, within and without.
