Ave Maria is an ode to the mother Island of the Azores:
Sta. Maria. It is inspired by the feminine energy
of the island as well as lore of the Atlantic Ocean &
local legends of mermaids & pirates.

with rhodium plating (“lost wax” castings created from

from classic Portugese tile art & nautical lore.
