Placing a protection & stability work

Mountains, old trees, elephants, thresholds and guardian figures — the vocabulary of protection is ancient and remarkably consistent across cultures. What these works share is mass low in the frame. They make a wall feel like a wall, which is why they are hung near doors and in the rooms of children and elders.
