{"product_id":"night-guides","title":"Night Guides","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eIn this new body of work, Cortney Herron expands the dreamlike language established in \u003cem\u003eThe Land of My Dreams\u003c\/em\u003e (2025), continuing her exploration of how energy moves between figures, environments, and intimate moments of connection. Duality remains central, expressed through paired figures, mirrored gestures, and watchful forms that suggest rhythms of protection and vulnerability, stillness and motion. These relationships are fluid rather than fixed, revealing energy as something exchanged, absorbed, and reflected within shared space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eA subtle lavender motif threads through the series, originating from a personal moment of loss and remembrance. Appearing sparingly, the color functions as a quiet trace—an echo of memory and presence that lingers beyond its source. Together, the works meditate on unseen currents that shape inner and outer worlds, inviting viewers to sense the movement of energy within moments of pause, absence, and connection, and to reflect on how such forces continue to shape perception and experience over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the artist's words:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Two wolf-like beings communicate in a shared gaze, alert yet connected. They feel ancestral, like guardians from a parallel world. Night Guides suggests we are always accompanied, even in solitude and even in the shadows, by forces that perhaps know more than we do.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cortney Herron","offers":[{"title":"31.25 x 25.0 inches | Original Work \/ Custom \/ Custom","offer_id":44479899599030,"sku":"CH_NG_PAINTING_31.25_X_25.0__A638_A24243","price":3950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/7736\/files\/Night-Guides-25x31_25-Primary.jpg?v=1768519324","url":"https:\/\/www.tappancollective.com\/products\/night-guides","provider":"Tappan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
