Description
“Shield Bearer”
12″ x 7″
By Maryann Cord
Spanning thirty millennia of artistic tradition, the goddess figure is one of humanity’s oldest ceramic subjects. Maryann Cord’s work breathes new life into this ancient lineage, offering “modern-day relics” that bridge the gap between the physical and the divine.
Shield Bearer embodies the transcendental essence of the Great Mother- a powerful symbol of fertility, rebirth, and guardianship. More than a sculpture, it serves as an apotropaic object, imbued with the symbolic magic to turn away evil and protect the spirit.
