Aurum springs from the most basic, the land that nurtures and produces and hides riches aplenty. It is the interior, where we can discover a world of light and color as we open an opaque rough stone. It is the uncovered value when we see beyond an exterior without shine. It is to reconnect with out inner self, with the land at our feet that saw us from birth, and that will see us, as we emerge from our growing chrysalis.
