ISABELLA GARAFFA
Transition 60x72
ARTIST STATEMENT
"This one has taken me a long time to finish , but I’m finally on the other side. As I sit here in my studio the wind is blowing. There’s always this special kind of wind in the month August, that subtly reminds me of the change of season that is coming ahead. And though I hoard every little moment of summer here in the mountains, the nearing of fall time is somehow as good as when spring is arriving. As nature slowly prepares for what’s forthcoming, so is my heart. Transitioning can be threatening when you put your trust in the environment of safety you’ve created for yourself. But nature shows us over and over again that in order to grow, changes must happen. And they are good, when you know Who’s hand is holding yours.".
