Description
'Eternal Encompassing' visually embodies Emily Dickinson's 'Hope.' “Hope” is the thing with feathers – That perches in the soul – And sings the tune without the words – And never stops – at all – « Against a fervent red backdrop, Quercy weaves symbolism, featuring a pregnant woman as the embodiment of hope's nurturing potential.
A delicate black line envelops her, symbolizing hope's protective embrace, while a small man underscores the humility in facing hope's vastness. Bold black lines represent life's challenges, reflecting hope's unwavering journey.
