This amazing embroidery is a part of the 6-piece Living Eyes series, a series of beautiful and intriguing animal-eye close-ups. It can be purchased and admired as a single piece of 30 x 30 cm (11.8 x 11.8 in), or you can get more pieces from the series for your home, office or business premises. The whole series as a set of 6 measures 60 x 120 cm (23.6 x 47.2 in).
This gorgeous embroidery allows you to gaze into the eye of a macaw. Birds are the most visually dependent class of vertebrates, meaning that their eyesight is crucial for their survival. Macaws can see two to three times better than us, especially details and motions, and they see a wider spectrum of colours then us, including UV range. Their brain receives much more information through eyes than ours. But what do they make up from what they see? You can sink deep into this brightly coloured and highly detailed embroidery and ponder.
In ancient Greece, they believed that a light and even fire emanates from an eye, seizing the surrounding world with its rays. It opens to the world and grasps more than any words can say. And like a portal to one’s inside, it can reveal a lot, even things that cannot or would not be said with words. It really is the window to the soul and the mirror of our world. Gazes of animals are mesmerizing and at the same time a powerful reminder of who we are in this world and of how co-dependent we all are on the planet we share.
