Rooted Beyond the Damage Card

The damage is real. The scars are visible. And still—this tree stands. This artwork speaks to survival without denial. Pain is not erased here; it is acknowledged. Yet the roots and reach extend further than the wound itself. Created for those navigating grief, recovery, or long seasons of endurance. This piece honours the truth that what has happened matters—but it does not get the final word. A grounding visual for spaces of courage, reflection, and long-term healing.
