SHADOW'S CRESCENDO
"The more I ignored my inner truth and neglected the self-improvement work that needed to be done, the more I could not escape the growing crescendo of my shadows. Eventually, the consequences of my avoidance became overwhelming and impossible to ignore.
Within the labyrinth's corridors of healing, I am but a traveler navigating the intricate terrain of my soul. My journey is not one of avoidance or evasion but rather a courageous exploration into the shadows that linger in the cavity of my being. For decades, I hid behind substances and instantly gratifying fixes that pushed the pain down deeper into my subconscious. The beliefs I developed made it hard to see my worth, and forgiving myself felt like a scapegoat. Through shadow work, we unravel the tangled threads of our subconscious, bringing to light that which has long been shrouded in darkness. We confront our fears, insecurities, and deepest pains with unwavering courage and self-compassion.
By navigating and unearthing my soul's buried fragments, I understood that healing was a lifelong process involving constant personal inventory. My path to healing has been paved with trials and tribulations; within these re-opened wounds, I began to see the necessity to work on the way I viewed myself, and it is only by identifying where the narration started that we can truly heal. Each cavern holds a lesson, a message waiting to be deciphered—a reflection of our deepest fears, desires, and unresolved conflicts. We reclaim sovereignty over our core beliefs by taking back the power we have unwittingly relinquished to our past traumas. Healing is not a linear journey—it is a cyclical process of growth and renewal, marked by moments that spark insight and confront us with staggering vulnerability. It is a journey of integration, of embracing the entirety of our being—the light and the shadow alike. The path to loving ourselves fully, unlocking the deservingness needed to move confidently around the world, is to love the light and darkness equally. With its dark brown tone, the charred oak frame adds a sense of contrast and grounding to the composition, emphasizing the transformative nature of shadows as they deepen and intensify in proximity to light. I fight to reclaim my power and stay in a state of brutal self-awareness. I am no longer defined by the wounds of my past but by the courage with which I confront them. As I continue my journey of healing and self-discovery, I hold the key to my liberation—a key that has been in my possession all along."
- Written together, Taylor + Connor Robinson. 2024

Our process often begins by envisioning the space where each piece will ultimately live. We consider not only the textural and visual impact it will have on its surroundings but also the emotional resonance it will evoke. Each creation is imbued with intention, a quiet faith that the right collector will find it and feel an immediate, visceral connection. This alignment between artist, artwork, and space is something we strive for in every project, and time and again, it has guided our pieces into the homes where they belong. We are endlessly captivated by the psychology of design—how the elements within a space can either foster tranquility or unsettle the mind. For Taylor, the dream has always been to create safe, authentic spaces—both for herself and for those who welcome VISCERAL HOME into their lives. Connor provided me my first "safe space" and "home" - it’s this dedication to creating environments that support mental well-being that underpins every work of art we handcraft.
