Original artwork description:

"The Wild Edge of Sorrow" - oil on canvas, 15 x 30 x 1. Ready to hang.

[Shame] is unspeakable because we do not want anyone to know how we feel inside. We fear it is irreparable because we think it is not something we have done wrong - it is simply who we are. We cannot remove the stain from our core. We search and search for the defect, hoping that, once found, it can be exorcised like some grotesque demon. But it lingers, remaining there our entire lives. anxious that it will be seen and simultaneously longing to be seen and touched with compassion. - from The Wild Edge of Sorrow by Francis Weller.

This piece is sold unframed. It will be shipped flat, carefully packaged in mostly repurposed shipping materials.
