Detail
Clever crows sometimes use humans to help them crack open walnuts. When you understand their intent and cooperate with them, it feels as though you have made a small, heartfelt connection with the bird. Humans and other living things coexist, interconnected within the Earth’s cycle of life. If we can sense these connections in our daily lives, it feels as though each day becomes a little easier to live. The 36 colored dots represent the 36 elements that make up living organisms. These elements are constantly circulating, shaping the very bodies we inhabit.
