Surrounded by Love Ornament

For holidays or for everyday, ornaments celebrate life's milestones in a small, commemorative format. This ornament is a smaller-sized version of Surrounded by Love #26233 with brown elastic cord for hanging. “I wanted to make a figure with her face in the flowers, taking them in with her senses — smelling them, feeling the petals against her face; feeling safe in that surround. So this piece could say to someone that they are loved by those around them… if a person is experiencing difficulty, it could be a reminder of family and friends who support and are there for them. Or it could be a way to say to one special person that all of your love is surrounding them (more of a romantic interpretation)… or just a little gift for someone who loves to garden… I like that people read this piece differently." –Susan Lordi

Willow Tree® er en intim serie af figurative skulpturer, der taler til, på stille måder at helbrede, trøste, beskytte og inspirere. Kunstneren Susan Lordi håndskærer originalen af hver figur fra hendes studie i Kansas City Missouri. Figurerne er efterfølgende støbt fra hendes originale udskæringer og individuelt malet i hånden. Udtryk afsløres kun ved bevægelser ... en hældning af hovedet, placering af hænderne, en drejning af kroppen. Enkelheden i form og fravær af ansigtstræk betegner Willow Tree. Det er Susans håb, at disse figurer er meningsfulde for både giver og modtager.
