SHAPE AND FORM

One Love is a sculpture of duality. If you approach it from the front it says LOVE, if you approach it from the back it simply says ONE. However, if you look at it from the front to back it says Love One, or likewise from the back to front it says One Love.

The reference of its name "One Love" comes from a Bob Marley song written about the fact that we should all share a sense of love for each other, and come together with unity and peace to celebrate one humanity, one love.

The hanging Love Ball is representative of a beehive or hornet's nest. This is a metaphor for all things life. For instance, we as humans cannot exist without bees. Bees pollinate our floral world and make it a better place, yet they can also sting should they feel threatened.

Love is in essence the same. Love is love. Love is scary, love is beautiful, and love rules the world, as does lack of love. This hanging sculpture serves as a reminder of the power of love, the circle of life, and an appreciation for Mother Earth.

Fear has similarities to a rocking chair - It can keep you occupied, but it gets you nowhere. This sculp- ture is a reminder not simply to try to be fearless, but to actually fear less. We all have fears, but many of them are unfounded, for instance - fear of "the other" or fear of dying, neither of which is helpful to living a happy life.
The head armature is a combination between ant- lers and wings serving as strength, protection, courage, and freedom. FearLess is made of Italian glass tiles & Smalti, mirrors, cedar wood, rebar, mixed media, and a watch which is set at 11:11 along with the "Circles of Life".
