"Morrigan" was created from the trunk of a large invasive tamarisk tree removed from the Desert Rose Labyrinth in Kayenta, & was lightly carved by Cheryl Collins to expose the shape of a crow near the top of one of the branches. Metal artist, Trent Ripplinger created the metal crow, crow’s nest, steel base and snake to complete the sculpture. 

Crows represent the spirit of family & community, protecting the flock, intelligence, healing, & unexpected magic & energy. The sculpture is named Morrigan, after the Celtic Goddess Morrigan who is often portrayed with crows. Morrigan symbolizes ancestral healing, rebirth & sovereignty. Morrigan's blessing: "May you awaken to a newfound hope that, even in your darkest moments, you have never been alone."
