Motherhood

$48,880.00 AUD
 
Acacia Aneura, known by the First Nations People as snake wood, 18ct yellow gold, diamonds and a ruby. 
 
A struggle of survival, leaning on the attributes and gifts we inherited from birth. An unfair advantage of capability if we choose to use them. Discover the symbolic 18ct gold asymmetric forms representing strength and a woman's uterus. 
 
The organic contortion of the wood represents the shift in perspective. The understanding and awakening of becoming a parent. The duty, the obligation and the gift of looking after a new life. 
 
The spider embodies life and death we all face. The realisation of our own fragility and the mortality of our loved ones. Our shared humanity, the acknowledgement that we are all someone's child, worthy and deserving of love, kindness and compassion. 
 
All anchors are terminated by diamonds, except one. The anchor furthest from the spider's limb. It is terminated with a ruby, to represent the trauma and hardships of birth, completely misunderstood. Only a mother truly knows the sacrifice, the pain, the conscious awareness and the joy.
