An alchemy of symbolism, imagination, curiosity and sacred elements...

“Vessel” is the container, the seed pod, the heart, the sailboat, the artery, that which carries something somewhere, holds something, protects something, the in-between being here or there yet the most important part of the journey.

Each piece I make is a vessel to carry my art, my intentions, my visions, the story of each piece, and the connection of the piece to the wearer.

The vessel carries whatever the wearer believes it carries.

The word VESSEL is powerful. It reminds me of a woman, and how she is the vessel for her child, a vessel that carries life from the unseen to the seen.  

The symbol that I have created to represent Vessel Arts has the sacred ouroboros, which is the representation of life death and rebirth, a constant cycle, a circle. The V shape a representation of fertility... perhaps a plant reaching to the sun, a cactus, a mother’s body, the circle, her head or the sun.  The four dots represent the four directions, the 5 elements present when the “sun” as the third dot is included.
