This Master
work by award winning artist Oberon Zell is his loving
tribute to Gaia-the Earth Mother Goddess.
The
Millennial Gaia is a richly detailed, meticulously
sculpted vision of the living Earth and the
interconnectedness of all her children. An accurate
planetary globe forms her pregnant belly. An intricate
tapestry of animals in the back of her hair traces the
evolution of vertebrate life on the land. Delicate
etchings on her legs depict the evolution of life in the
sea. The plant kingdom finds expression in her leafy
hair and the engravings that adorn her arms, culminating
in the majestic redwood forest on the right and the
tropical rainforest on the left. Her right breast is a
cornucopia of nourishing fruits and vegetables. Her left
breast, over her heart, is the pulsing moon.
This
exquisite sculpture is a physical expression of the
oneness of all life on Earth, and conveys the serene
beauty and majesty that is Gaia herself. She is the
divine center of our world, and radiates an evocative
power in our lives. |
