One of my favorite pieces of art has always been the Venus figure, most famously
known is the Venus of Willendorf. This figure has been made by many different ancient
cultures across different regions, all very similar. I find the creation of like things without
contact from other places to be one of the most human things. Some things seem so
ingrained that they pop out of civilizations over and over again. Creation, compassion,
nurturing, and feeling connected are some of the themes that I tried to address in this
piece.
