Artist: Melissa Tshikamba
Title: Triple Goddess
Size: 11x14
Medium: Oil
Artist Statement: This painting draws inspiration from the Triple Goddess of modern Pagan and Wiccan traditions: the Maiden, Mother, and Crone, associated with the waxing, full, and waning moon. These three aspects reflect youth and possibility, creation and nurture, and wisdom and experience. Through three girls from different walks of life dancing beneath one moon, I wanted to celebrate our individual paths and the cycles or phases that connect us.
