Swastika Dream Cycle
Dream Cycle by Amenti studios.
This piece is from 2008. It symbolizes the opening and closing of cycles in one's life. It stems from the belief that life is a dream that each one of us creates for ourselves. Within these dreams--our lives--that we create for ourselves, there are underlying patterns or cycles of thought or behavior and as we grow, these cycles open and close as we change and progress throughout life. It's kind of like saying that our lives are divided into chapters in a book. As we as the main characters of our life stories progress so to do chapters open and close.
