LORENA CAIRNS

Windows of the souls (1973 - 2001) Is a painting that commemorates the 20th anniversary of the World Trade Center terror attacks. I wanted the collage to show how the Twin Towers were in their glory with Windows On The World in the background. With the lights shining above through eternity. The windows represent all the lost souls and the hands in the background represent unity we had then and the unity we have now . The roots in the bottom of the building show that with growth we can rebuild anything . I’m so proud to be a New Yorker and be part of this beautiful, caring and strong city. We went through a very dark chapter in US history but we came out united.
