FIREBIRD

Illustrations inspired by the "Dance of The Firebird" from "The Firebird" ballet by Igor Stravinsky. The slumbering Firebird—an enigmatic being whose rise and fall represents the cyclical dance of life, energy, and renewal. The Firebird wakes, dances with fiery vigor, and seamlessly descends into rest once again. As naturally as the Firebird sprang to life, so it curls up once more, retreating into its sacred slumber. The embers cool, the flames diminish, and a hush descends. But this isn’t an ending. Instead, it’s a return to stillness—a deliberate pause before the new cycle begins. Just as the Firebird knows the importance of stillness, so must we. The quiet that follows each burst of energy allows us to reflect, restore, and prepare for what’s next.
