What would you do for a wish?
Cranes are believed to have the power to grant wishes and answer prayers, which is where the tradition of senbazuru – folding 1,000 cranes origami to make “wishes come true” – comes from.
They have also come to represent love and longevity as they mate for life. Thus, the tradition of presenting 1000 cranes to a couple to wish them a long and happy marriage evolved.
May these cranes carry you to longevity, success, hope and good fortune.
Get to Know the Austin Artist:
I draw inspiration from the perfectly symmetrical asymmetry in life and the world around me. It’s one of the reasons why I embrace the freedom of the abstract realm. There is the freedom in it that allows for spontaneity and mistakes.
Above all, I am an avid believer that beauty should be experienced at every possible moment, whether that is found in the perfect latte, a breathtaking view, or a stolen kiss. I strive to create art that communicates that belief, one that does not shock and awe, but gives the viewer a muted joy, peace and contentment that can be experienced everyday.
