Hats
Description: Taking a design cue from Capernicus, Heliocentric is a representation of our solar system with alchemical zodiac and elemental symbols, an omniscient eye, an ever watchful Ouroboros and an orbiting comet. The snake represents the continuity and nature of birth and death. The zodiac alchemical.symbols reflect our birth moment individuality while the orbiting comet represents that once in a lifetime chance. The center eye represents the collective subconscious as well as the concept of conventional wisdom- what we believe to be reality. Capernicus risked everything to prove the sun was the center of our solar system.. What is common acceptance now was radical and dangerous once.
Description: A full foliage Tree of Life is bordered by an Ouroboros (the snake that devours itself). The tree is the embodiment of Gaia, the earth, earth energy. The Ouroboros (in this composition) represents the "whole" or All. The Triskelion hinted in the root area represents the past, present and future. Paradise is so easily lost, so often taken for granted. This work is a homage to our home, Gaia (Earth), which by all definitions is a paradise. A fragile paradise.
