Bodhisattva Kannon Oceana
This evolved from an Etruscan-style woman in relief. A Buddhist Bodhisattva is one who achieves enlightenment but postpones paradise to help save all beings. The Bodhisattva Kannon (or Kanzeon) is often represented as female, the embodiment of mercy and compassion. As well as the earth, she is chained to the oceans, which we are destroying with plastic refuse, over-fishing and the new threat of deep-sea mining.
