The Gift of Ember

The gaze between the Samoan dancer and the redhead is a language that only both of them understand. She looks to him and is transported to another place. Surrounded by a whirlwind of elements, she finds her peace in the chaos. The Samoan dancer offers her the gift of Ember as token of his love for her. Tropical images were incorporated into this piece such as Plumerias, Bird of Paradise plants, and even the ‘Honu’ (turtle).
