The feather reveals that everything is interconnected: the earth, the cosmos, the real and the imaginary. It also runs through the history of art and humanity. Both a drawing and a writing instrument, often made from goose or even swan feathers, it is used to draw clean, precise lines of great artistic finesse. The feather has also served as an ornamental, ritual and symbolic motif in the cultures of America, Oceania and Africa. In Western art, the feather alone evokes lightness, freedom and a link with the universe, whether pagan or religious.
