*** About Swans and Totem Poles: Swans, often symbols of love and fidelity due to their lifelong partnerships, represent grace and beauty in nature's poetry. Contrastingly, totem poles, significant in Indigenous cultures of the Pacific Northwest, recount stories, lineage, and heritage through their vivid carvings and towering presence. The swan's serene journey across the waters juxtaposed with the watchful and wise totem poles creates a narrative of continuity and reverence for both nature and culture, positioning this piece as a dialogue between the natural world and indigenous history.
