ARTIST ROOM BY CLOUDFACE

ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE

From the Artist - Cloudface:
Arrival/Departure is about the cycle of the seasons and the blessing brought by hummingbirds. Hummingbirds bring with them the warmth and abundance of the spring and summer. They protect their territory while simultaneously showing their strength and beauty. Hummingbirds also warn us of the coming cold with their departure, telling us it's time to prepare for the winter ahead. Even though they leave and take with them the blessings of abundance, we know they will be back to continue the cycle. The hummingbirds are entering the room from the window and making their way through the room before exiting.
