[COPY] The Dawn of Reconnection

A Mother's Vigil and the Journey Home

As the first light of dawn creeps across the horizon, it brings with it the promise of a new day, the end of night’s quiet reflection, and the warmth of the sun’s embrace—this is the moment encapsulated in Presley LaFontaine’s twin alabaster sculptures, a moment of profound emotional awakening after a lifetime of silent yearning and unspoken truths

In one, we see the mother, a figure carved with such delicacy that she seems to be both emerging from and dissolving into the morning mist—she stands tall and serene, her gaze lifted towards the awakening sky—the sculpture, aptly named "Whispers of Contemplation," tells a story of patience and endurance—it's not just the story of a mother and son—it's the embodiment of every heart that's ever waited, every soul that's ever longed for a return

The other sculpture, "Echoes of the Free," is the son's tale, represented by a majestic horse that stands for his journey—with each curve and line, LaFontaine has infused the horse with a sense of motion and purpose, capturing the spirit of the son who, after wandering through life’s trials and tribulations, is finally coming home

Their story is one of difficulty and disconnection, a narrative familiar to many—a rift had formed between mother and son, deepened by misunderstandings and the passing of time, represented by the hollow space in the center of the mother's sculpture—but like all things, the void is also a space where something new can grow

One day, as the story goes, there was a breakdown, a moment where all barriers crumbled, and the raw truth spilled out like a torrent—it was painful, it was pure, and ultimately, it was healing—this breakdown led to a breakthrough, a chance to rebuild on foundations of honesty and love

Now, as the mother waits in the stillness of the pre-dawn light, there's a sense of tranquility that only comes from forgiveness and the anticipation of reunion—and as the son rides toward her, each hoofbeat is a drumming testament to the resilience of their bond

These are investment pieces, offered at $9k each, or $15k for both

They can be sold for much more in Santa Fe, and other art cities

Presley passed on earlier this year—and his work is becoming internationally known as some of the very best of Native American fine art
