By stripping down the essence of emotion to pure form, she opens the interpretation of each piece to the giver and the receiver. This one-of-a-kind approach to product creation makes her pieces truly individual... her hand, and her unique perspective, is evident in each sculpture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“I wanted to sculpt a young couple, finding romantic love – the butterflies and uncertainty, the chemistry and electricity – discovered when you’re in each other’s presence. I wanted the piece to be tender and intimate, elegant and quiet… Since the pose is derived from dance, I also wanted it to appear to have movement as you look at different angles.My challenge was to carve completely in the round, so that from every view, you have a different understanding… you see variations. There’s no correct way to position the piece.There are three touch points – their fingers on both hands, and the tops of their heads. I like this bit of connection… the tingly excitement and shared energy that comes from moments together with a new love.” —Susan Lordi\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003eFigurine Height: 16.5cm.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade of Resin with hand-painted detail.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Willow Tree","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42651342864619,"sku":"638713227157","price":103.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/3619\/4027\/products\/E620CB0D-26C5-4BDA-9340-EC01DFDD5651.jpg?v=1660714583","url":"https:\/\/daisyblossomgifts.com.au\/products\/willow-tree-around-you","provider":"Daisy Blossom Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
