The barn owl is a symbol of mystery, secrecy, and mediumship. With its piercing cry and distinctive features, it undeniably exudes an aura of mystery. Across cultures, it is associated with death and, more specifically, with communication with the deceased.
The poppy, a well-known opiate, symbolizes rest, letting go and dreaminess.
Acrylic paint + protective varnish on birch wood. Unique piece, hand-painted.
Dimensions of painted wood: approximately 17.5 cm high, 16.3 cm wide, 1.5 cm deep.

These pieces are made exclusively from recycled wood that I find during my wanderings in the forest. I search for them, shape them as desired, and sand them myself.
The reindeer antler comes from a Sami herd.
