The Unseen*

This Unseen features the Currawong, a striking bird often linked to themes of magic, divination and prophecy, echoing its kinship with the crow and magpie. Though cloaked in dark plumage, the Currawong, like many blackbirds, is frequently misunderstood. It defies conventional beauty — not vibrant or melodious, but instead, powerful, enigmatic, and true to its nature.

In Feng Shui, shades of black and blue-black represent the Yin aspect — associated with feminine, receptive, and grounding energy. While often avoided in intimate spaces like bedrooms and kitchens, black plays a significant role in areas connected to career and life path, such as entryways or living rooms. It corresponds to the water element, symbolising flow, abundance, and prosperity. 

Those drawn to blackbirds like the Currawong need not apologise for their pull toward the mysterious and the unseen. These creatures are unapologetically themselves — and in their quiet strength and shadowed grace, they offer us a reminder: to embrace our own complexity, our darkness, and the power that comes from being wholly who we are.

I love to paint manifestation-driven artworks blending feng shui energy and vision board theory.
