Wings Of Angels - Medium

Symbolism and art create a wonderful blend of meaning and skill that artists convey in stunning ways.

The Wings of Angels piece is a complex design incorporating the flow and beauty of peacock feathers with a stylised angel.

Peacocks are thought to symbolise renewal and immortality. Their feathers are said to ward off evil. The eye of the feather is a symbolism of the wisdom of God (depicted in paintings of Michael the Archangel referred to as the weigher of souls). The stylised angel in this piece represents guardianship, suggested to be one of the roles of these magnificent forms.

To me his piece is about companionship. I wanted this piece to feel like these beautiful forms are sharing our journey.

One of the challenges with this design was to create the right shaped pot to enable the design to flow in the right way. The angels and feathers had to be just the right distance apart to enable me to maximise the level of detail.

I have used this design on three sizes of hand thrown pots and a charger.

The medium (approximately 7.5” high) pieces are limited editions of 7, each are £832.
