Aaethron: Servant to the Queen of Flight
2006
Polymer Clay, Fabric, Feathers, Beads, Acrylic Paint
Aaethron was once a man who desired to become a bird, or perhaps a bird who desired to become a man, between the two, he no longer remembers which. He is the most trusted messenger of the Queen of Flight, who has granted him this boon; whenever he accomplishes a deed of note, she transforms him further to his desired form, but each time he must choose which form it is that he seeks. Does he dream of flight lost or to be gained, or perhaps lost and gained and lost again?
