4 Billion years old, this unique iron-nickel meteorite made landfall from the asteroid belt into present day Africa…Namibia, the Kalahari Desert…many centuries and many human hands later, this space rock came to rest in Arizona, USA. It has been meticulously hand carved, polished and etched over a period of 2 years…creating a once in a lifetime artifact and natural history wonder.
Gaia (Goddess Gaea in the Greek) is a true Time Traveller for the ages. Always the question: Why a skull? And my usual answer: The human skull is possibly the most powerful symbol we share in our civilizations.
Evoking the fear of Death, the impermanence of Life and the appreciation for the time slot we share on earth. Our skull is also the Ultimate Architectural design, housing the oh-so-important-big brain safely and soundly to withstand all the adventures a life can conjure.
