bitter bloom
The Ouroboros – the serpent that bites its own tail. An ancient symbol of life, death, and rebirth.
This piece carries five teardrops, dedicated to five beloved beings who left the physical world. In recent years, I’ve come to know the weight of grief and the rawness of losing loved ones. This work holds the paradox: the beauty of the natural life cycle, but also the brutality and pain that come with it.
