"Still There" was created during a live painting session at the Roots Tech conference. The piece is Lee's reflection on the idea of being connected to the other side, a theme that deeply resonates with her belief in the presence of loved ones who have passed on.
This belief is elegantly rendered in the painting, which she brought to life in front of an audience, allowing them to become part of the creative process.
"Still There" represents the unseen support that surrounds each of us: the people who love us are always with us, even if we cannot see them there. This painting fosters connections and offers comfort to those who believe in life beyond the physical world.
In her own words, the space between the hands in the painting, almost touching, is significant. It's about the anticipation of contact and the sense of nearness despite physical absence. "Still There" is an artwork that is meant to come alive for the viewers, allowing them to feel excited about the message it carries.
