The Statue of Liberty is one of the most significant expressions of freedom. In the same way many artists from different parts of the world have expressed the theme of freedom through different art forms. But the most beautiful theme of all is the bird escaping through the open door of a bird cage. Freedom from bondage, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom to live one’s life on one’s own terms are all expressed by just that little theme. Being such a lovely concept a bird cage tattoo would naturally be a superb idea. These are some examples, some simple and some ornate that will please everyone’s tastes.
An empty birdcage with the door open may seem a simple design but it has profound meaning. It signifies freedom from bondage. It means you can lead your life the way you want. It signifies you can say and do what you want. It is a symbol that means you are happy to be alive without any restrictions. And when this concept is used in tattoo art it becomes sublime. These are a few tattoos of bird cages in very artistic designs. Each tattoo in this collection is a work of art. Some have lovely shading in a single color.
