FLOATING ELEMENTS – let go
FEATHERS, PETALS, LEAVES… ELEMENTS THAT FLOAT
what is the meaning of incorporating floating elements in a tattoo design?
incorporating floating elements within a tattoo composition provides a sense of soft freedom, sometimes melancholic, but light
the weight of the element fades as it flutters through the air, thus creating a sense of emotional lightness
small natural elements that fall, float in the air, and move as they dance through the cycle of life that is born, dies, and makes room for the new and better
the original element is now missing a piece of itself that, willingly or not, has been let go of in its own way
a weight has been lifted
or perhaps it was ripped away by a sudden clash, depending on the circumstances
this void, in some way, has lightened the burden and made space for something new
the symbolism of floating elements speaks of melancholy for something that is no longer there, but at the same time, it creates space for the arrival of the new
with love, but always irreverent
