There can be no closer connection than a mother and child, nature's ultimate bond, a powerful, enduring love repeated across time. Rike and Chiara, a mother and daughter, their shared femininity, tenderness and power granted by nature with features mirrored yet distinct. A nurturing haven and mutual respect for what has gone before and what is to come. In a world of superficiality, this bond reminds us that there is no beauty more extraordinary than that that lies within our relationships, our shared humanity and the affection we feel for those closest to us.
