Returning Water
InoPtah
Artist’s Statement: Our entire life is cyclical. And everything that comes to us must eventually leave. We can delay it, we can resist the rules, but the process cannot be stopped. Our possessions, our relationships, even ourselves – all of this is part of the great journey. And even the water given to us must return to the cycle of life. We can delay and resist… But it’s so much easier to finally let go.
