I have been deeply moved by the state of our world,
as I
am sure you have, and I felt the need to express my feeling through this
piece of art. "Peace" shows a
ancient stone slab with a stitched decorative boarder. Inscribed on the slab is a
stitched dove, Chinese calligraphy
for peace, and heavenly bamboo.
Pattern symbolism: Bamboo
is valued as a perfect symbol of the wood element, which is defined by
tall, thin, vertical shapes and the color green. This element is said to
have an influence on life energy, growth, vitality. The
bird hold the energy of gentleness. They are not aggressive and will
avoid confrontation whenever possible. They are patient and observant.
The bird teaches us how to move through life with a gentle strength and
a patient persistence.
