Not For Sale

This work uses imagery of swans, wolves, and seals to act as the mythological figures of animal shifters in Swedish, Croatian, and Celtic Myths. In these myths the woman never got a choice; she was a prize to be won; a possession. This work is a visual representation of what she lost in the forced marriage and motherhood.
