{"product_id":"far-from-home","title":"Far From Home","description":"\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003eCortney Herron’s latest body of work explores identity as a frequency — something continually transmitted, interpreted, and recalibrated in relation to one’s surroundings. Her figures appear as beings in disguise, with elongated fingers, gloves, veils, masks, and animal forms functioning as tools for translation between the internal self and the external world. Recurring feline imagery shifts from companion or guardian to camouflage, blurring the boundaries between figure and disguise while reflecting the subtle adaptations required to navigate spaces in which one may feel misunderstood or othered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the center of the series is an exploration of energy and the invisible exchanges that occur between individuals. Herron considers the tension between what can be controlled or concealed and what is inevitably communicated through presence, perception, and connection. Her figures appear to move between possible versions of themselves, shifting in response to how they are perceived. Through this evolving visual language, Herron examines adaptation as a form of endurance, revealing the complex ways identity is preserved, transformed, and expressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the artist's words:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"A cat-suited figure waits beneath a distant sun or moon, still and watchful, the light marking a point of origin too far to reach. This is the quiet cost of the disguise: to move through life in this borrowed form is the only way to exist here at all, but the suit that lets her pass unnoticed is also what keeps her from ever fully arriving. The loneliness isn't dramatic, it's structural, the low hum of being permanently tuned to a frequency this place was never built to receive. Far From Home doesn't ask to be rescued. It just names the distance, and sits inside it.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cortney Herron","offers":[{"title":"36 x 48 inches | Original Work \/ Natural \/ Reveal","offer_id":67593329541302,"sku":"CH_FFH_PAINTING_36.0_X_48.0__A638_A26407","price":6800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36 x 48 inches | Original Work \/ Walnut \/ Reveal","offer_id":67593329574070,"sku":"CH_FFH_PAINTING_36.0_X_48.0__A638_A26407","price":6800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36 x 48 inches | Original Work \/ Unframed \/ N\/A","offer_id":67593329606838,"sku":"CH_FFH_PAINTING_36.0_X_48.0__A638_A26407","price":5900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/7736\/files\/Far-From-Home-PAINTING-FRAMED-NATURAL-REVEAL-CH-FARFR-A26407-36-x-48.jpg?v=1791330246","url":"https:\/\/www.tappancollective.com\/products\/far-from-home","provider":"Tappan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
