revealing the value of our most precious possessions
The riches we desire, or the ends we dream of, promise more than just temporary satisfaction. These elusive treasures have the power to motivate us like nothing else, and then continue to define us long after we’ve acquired or achieved them. Disguised as merely life’s good fortune, our material possessions and personal accomplishments speak to our human need to be defined, to make our mark and stake our claim before we leave this fleeting life. But this ethereal permanence will all too soon be forgotten.
The web-like texture of this Mosaic traces the path of our longings, from inception to fulfillment, as they run through our hearts. The varied colors underneath represent the myriad of unique desires while the golden surface casts a uniform glimmer of hope and wanting.
