This exhibition was born of the present pandemic, economic stress and political division. With shops shuttered, occupations lost or on hold, neighbors separated and families unable to gather, normal life seems to have come to a halt. How do you cultivate hope and strength, remain positive and affirming, when everything around you seems to point in the opposite direction?
This is when artists step in to remind people of the beauty of the world, its strangeness and its transience, the power of imagination and experience to shape sensibility and response, to provide respite and hope.
We thank the generosity of the wonderful artists who allowed us to reproduce and exhibit their work in this fashion.
