“Gaia’s Mercy” is a double edge sword of servant and master. Inspired by many recent cataclysmic events regarding the power of nature, it is a humble reminder of who is truly the master on this plane. The lyrics from Sting song (wrapped around your finger) portray for me the essence of this piece:
“Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air you’ll never find me.
I will turn your face to alabaster,
Then you’ll find your servant is your master,”
The woman [Gaia obviously] will have hair of clouds, a body of crystalline water. It will be raining, as a village of worshipers beckon her blessing. Below on the beach are offerings, it is unclear whether they are people, fish hand made or what have you. Four urns are burning brightly despite the wet weather.
