About this artwork

An ostrich glides forward on colorful roller skates, balancing a gramophone, books, and an apple on its back. Headphones rest over its ears, and a carrot dangles just out of reach. Artist Diane Flick describes this as a reflection of late summer’s best moments—when daylight lingers, and we celebrate the past while anticipating what is ahead. That is when this delicate dance is at its apex. We hold onto cherished things, move toward new destinations, and leave behind sacred places. In this moment, we skate through life—collecting, discarding, and overlooking hidden treasures along the way.
