Yin & Yang - A Graphite Drawing by Brooke Figer

"Yin & Yang"
Brooke Figer
Graphite on Vellum
9 x 12 Inches

The two antlers are positioned to represent the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang (also yin-yang or yin yang, 陰陽 yīnyáng "dark—bright"). The drawing represents how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and balanced. They are stronger together.
