For thousands of years and across innumerable cultures, feathers have represented a connection to the spiritual.  They are not only a physical symbol of flight and freedom, but also symbolic of spiritual evolution.  Universally, feathers are a positive and uplifting image, bringing to mind freedom, truth, courage, travel, spirituality and more.

No matter your age or cultural background, this artwork is immediately recognizable as an uplifting symbol of freedom and happiness.  It’s welcoming and engaging and invites viewers to get closer and explore the visual details, the finish and the varying textures. 

The feather is hand-forged steel, mounted on a natural rock base and is finished with an industrial enamel giving it a durable and weather resistant finish.
