Steinbach, Manitoba

To the Ocean, White with Foam:  In so much of literature, the ocean stands in for the great unknown, the edge of civilization, the limit of existence. Sand is often used to symbolize infinity and quantities that are uncountable. David tells us that God's thoughts about his creation are limitless: "they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!" (Psalms 139:18). How do you interpret the two remaining elements of this tableau, the heart and the foam? Heritage Cemetery. [2012]
