a tree, a prayer

May you find strength, beauty and peace each day

Susan Lordi, Willow Tree artist, explains her inspiration-

qualities of strength, beauty and peace, and finding them within
ourselves each day. The prayer is one of hope and healing; about
living in the moment. The title is as much a prayer as the sentiment.
The tree can be a symbol of anything that is centering and
inspirational. Trees are grounding — a connection to that which
sustains us. It could also reference the Tree of Life; a universal
symbol in many different religions."

Willow Tree was introduced in January 2000 with one figurine, 15 angels, and the Nativity.
The line has grown to encompass those sentiments that we most want to express. To our friends,
to our family, to our children's teachers, to those near and dear, to those far and infrequent.
The original inspiration for Willow Tree still holds true today: Willow Tree is an intimate,
personal line of figurative sculptures representing qualities and sentiments that help us feel
close to others, heal wounds, or treasure relationships to living things. Artist Susan Lordi
hand-carves each original piece with this thought in mind. Her figures continue to evolve as she
identifies emotions so important for us to convey, and renders them in simple, pure gestures.
These art forms beautifully express love, closeness, healing, courage, hope...all the emotions of a
life well lived.

The name Willow Tree was chosen to symbolize that which is gestural and beckoning. The
figures are columnar in design, like a tree, and often carry natural objects or animals as
metaphors for human virtues or qualities...rosemary for remembrance, a bird for healing,
flowers for beauty.

The sculptures are rendered so as to suggest elegance, simplicity, peace and serenity. Forms
reveal their expressions through body gestures only...a tilt of the head, placement of the hands,
a turn of the body. Emotions are left to the viewer to discern, which makes them personal and
powerful.

Willow Tree is an understated line that speaks in a compelling and powerful way.
