Every day we hold a symbol of life in our hands or enjoy it on our plates. The egg. The egg is a symbol of fertility, in which we have the potential of life before us, because the egg carries within itself the potential for new life. For us as artists, the egg is especially interesting in its form because it has a fascinating shape when we look at it closely. An egg is something unique, there’s no geometric description except to say it is egg-shaped. An egg has a more pointed end on one side and a softer, rounded end on the other. Of course, the top is also round, but it’s more converging. Also, no two eggs are alike and there are quite different sizes depending on which bird an egg comes from.
