Pregnancy #5
Ashes from a pregnancy that ended in miscarriage.
This artwork is a commentary on the frailty of life, as well as a monument and place of serenity and reflection for the millions who have had pregnancies end, whether through choice or nature. Loss of pregnancy and the haunting echos of “what might have been” cause grief for so many. Most women suffering through this ordeal are dealt with in a cold, clinical way, depriving them of their right to experience and grieve this profound life-altering loss. I felt it was important to give it attention.
