Water – the source of life, a cradle and a homeland.

The fish swims in water as life itself – its power to multiply found in  its constant movement. It is also a symbol of death – cold and mute. The  fish belongs to the depths of the sea which, at once, both entice and  frighten humanity.

The fish belongs to a forgotten past, a developmental stage that every human embryo experiences.

The future belongs to the winged creatures.

Who hasn’t dreamed of flying in the sky?

Maybe, just as fish are our previous evolutionary stage, so birds are the stage ahead of us.

And what belongs to both these worlds?

Who washes their roots in water and reaches with their crown to the sky?

A person or a tree of the field?
