affirming the strength of common bond
There is the longing within each of us to be a part of something, to be understood, and to be known. We gravitate toward certain personal loyalties, from race and religion to politics and patriotism. These loyalties often evolve into deep motivations for our life’s purpose, and can provide both our most meaningful relationships and most intense conflicts. To share our traits, beliefs or experiences brings a great sense of belonging, but when our very identity is threatened, the response is visceral, even out of our control.
The web-like texture of this Mosaic speaks to the deep ties that can bond us to others. The metallic exterior reflects our commonality, while the warm variety of colors underneath show the individuality that will inevitably emerge.
