This piece is nearly 8 feet long and is designed to reveal the shadow behind the work as an integral part of the piece. 

The many ‘Pleas’ that I had in my heart and mind raising my children were mainly focused on health and safety… Please be safe, please be helthy, please do the right thing,…

When the children left the nest so to speak, the shadow of their love, their presence was always with me… I was hoping that mine went with them too.
