Willow Tree - Close To Me

Moulded in resin from an original sculpture. 20cm tall. "This piece came on strong as my daughter moved to France earlier this year. I will miss her terribly, but at the same time, I am so happy and excited for her. It is a personal message to my daughter - that regardless of whether we're apart or together - she's always close to me. The sentiment applies to any age; a child going away to camp, a teenager leaving for college, the message is the same. The intertwined images carved on the figures dresses visually echo this sentiment. I understand this piece from both sides, having been a daughter and having gone through the experience of raising one to adulthood. I hope both mothers and daughters will connect to the emotions of this piece." -Susan Lordi - A mother/daughter figure that expresses the connection, yet freedom, which exists in the best of relationships, near or far. A Mother's Day gift, graduation, wedding, or birthdays gift, a reminder of closeness even when apart.
