Designed by Jade Taylor named ‘Ouroboros’.

‘Ouroboros’ is an ancient Greek symbol that depicts a serpent eating its own tail as a symbol and metaphor for rebirth/recreation and infinity. The sweeping arches represent the re-interpretation of the traditional ouroboros symbol: the lines follow a continuous path where they disappear and re-emerge into its former self, an infinite cycle of re-creation and dismantling of itself.
