These Times and How We Maintained Focus 

Creative soul, Millie Sandy, is in the spotlight today, as part of our weekend celebration of  this years graduating cohort.

Millie writes-

‘Putto and the Unexpected Guest’ follows the story of a little cherub who struggles to identify love within himself and amongst his surroundings.

Confused by fellow putti, who spend their lives cultivating love through flowers and song, Putto turns to the Love Giants, inspired by the different forms of love according to the Ancient Greeks, to inquire about the unnamed burning sensation he frequently felt within himself.

With no luck, Putto begins a journey through nature, enjoying the simple things in life when he stumbles across his reflection within a puddle and soon realises what he had been missing.

This feeling was love and through his quest had discovered it did not only surface from the love received from others but could be felt through the love of oneself, the surroundings and of times gone by.

This message is emphasised through research of the Renaissance, a colour scheme developed from a trip to Rome and embedded through the use of recycled, ‘pre-loved’ materials.

In a time of uncertainty, where we must remain distant but strong, love still continues to hold this planet together.

Keep up your tremendous ethic Millie, you’re winning.
