Memory Garden

PHOENIX (work in progress) The Phoenix, known as Thunderbird by Native Americans, is a symbol of transformation. It gathers sacred wood for its own funeral pyre and sacrifices itself, knowing it will rise from its ashes to a higher level of being. A piece for a memory garden. For Andrew, who always rose up again. No matter what his circumstances. Each individual tile of this mosaic is hand-cut and artistically fitted to represent the fire, flames, and the glory reflected by the symbol. Size: approx 1m x 1m
