True mother to Athena, Metis is the Goddess of wisdom and cunning. She faced deceit and hardship to ensure her daughter's survival, and lovingly whispered wisdom to Zeus even after he swallowed her whole! Vivid hues and textured watercolor envelop Metis in an otherworldly atmosphere while linework and a meditative position insinuate a sense of suspension. She cradles her wisdom in a jar, drifting through time on a bed of hair.
