{"product_id":"kamama","title":"Kamama","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e'Kamama' is a portrait of remembrance, an ancestor rendered not as history, but as presence. His eyes are closed, not in rest, but in inward seeing, a blue band crossing his brow like a mark of passage between worlds.  This image came to me as a dream and this is what I saw.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCreated with acrylic on a 20\"w x 24\"h x 1\"d canvas, this piece carries lineage in its color and form. Above him, a great butterfly unfolds in gold and amber, its wings spread wide as if lifting from the crown of his head.  To me, this is a symbol of transformation, of the soul's ability to shed one shape for another and still remain whole.  'Kamama', meaning butterfly in Cherokee, holds that meaning at its center: metamorphosis as memory, and memory as medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis ancestor doesn't look outward for permission to become. He carries the change within him, quiet and certain, his stillness itself a kind of flight. The deep reds and warm earth tones root him to the ground even as the butterfly above him reaches toward the sky.  This is a reminder that transformation doesn't require leaving who you were behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEvery line, every wing-stroke, speaks to what endures across generations: that identity is not fixed, but carried forward, reshaped, and honored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis original piece is ready to hang.  This is a tribute to ancestry, change, and the sacred act of becoming.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"April Page Fine Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374034903329,"sku":null,"price":360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/5431\/7345\/files\/IMG_8167_aec155e0-e959-4cdc-8b63-ab2bb27ae7ab.png?v=1787609768","url":"https:\/\/www.aprilpaigefineart.com\/products\/kamama","provider":"April Page Fine Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
