'secrets' invites exploration of the balance between masculine and feminine energies within us. The artist is inspired by the black and white tones and resilience of gender-neutral birches as symbols of self-discovery and openness to all that exists within us. It encourages the external world to love and accept, without judgment, those who choose to live their lives authentically. In doing so, we can create a safe space in society for everyone to peel away their own layers and live and love in a more genuine way.
