Pencil on A3 Paper
2014
The High Priestess has a contemplative nature.
The crown consists in six circles and semicircles, they refer not only to the phases of the moon but sunrise too; in fact the crown central piece resembles vaguely the Egyptian hieroglyph called Akhet. 
Balanced on both sides of the crown a letter, Boaz and Jachin; in the same order, the first symbolize a female the other a male.
The High Priestess visage resembles a scroll, symbol of her abilities to use her knowledge of the Universe to balance the opposing forces of light and dark.
