⋆ The first scene called The birth of a Flower is a gentle metamorphosis that represents grief’s integration into universal memory, where personal loss becomes part of nature’s sacred cycle, creating beauty from what once was, without cruelty.
⋆ The garden that once was depicts a lizard moving through a fossilized ecosystem where bone insects fly like spectral butterflies and bone flowers stand as sacred relics.
When the lizard consumes these bone creatures, it absorbs fragments of forgotten memories and souls. This ossified world represents grief as a silent presence rather than disappearance, everything preserved in its final form. The lizard, a survivor among these traces, creates meaning by internalizing loss.
Each bone flower symbolizes a precious memory frozen in time, while the bone insects embody fleeting thoughts and regrets about those we’ve lost.
⋆ The third and final scene called Where silence blooms features phoenixes, symbols of rebirth that rise not from flames but from quiet acceptance. This moment captures both wound and healing: time suspended, beauty growing, life returning without permission. In this landscape, forgetting has liberated form, memory has blossomed, and life reemerges differently. This gentle renaissance isn’t about erasing the past but embracing the sacred momentum that allows us to live with what we’ve experienced, emerging not as before, but vaster, gentler, and more authentic.
