Solstice celebrates the quiet presence of the barn owl, a species whose silent flight and ghostly beauty have captivated people for centuries. Created from individually hand-cut and painted archival paper feathers, this life-size sculpture captures the moments that often go unnoticed in nature: stillness, awareness, and quiet observation. Reflecting the balance between light and darkness that gives the piece its name, Solstice portrays the calm confidence of an animal so perfectly adapted to life between the visible and unseen, inviting the viewer to pause and reconnect with the quiet beauty of the natural world.
