Emily Cahoon – Standing Strong

Description

Artist Statement

The primary inspiration behind “Standing Strong” was nature being a bigger part of my life than the average person. I incorporate nature into my spirituality, finding not just solace, but a profound form of guidance within the wilderness. In particular, I like to call the trees “Spiritual Giants.” They are monumental, enduring entities—silent witnesses to time and change. In this piece these “Spiritual Giants” are not just trees, they represent something bigger than me that I cannot fully describe or articulate.
