Some believe art is not necessary

I believe it’s crucial

We will reclaim our joy and the strength to move forward via the arts

It will take time, no doubt

Although the 6 February 2023 twin earthquakes have hit like cannonballs to the soul,

They have also shown that …

…. strongest pillars of healing are built upon art and learning.

“You’ve got to invest in the world, you’ve got to read, you’ve got to go to art galleries, you’ve got to find out the names of plants. You’ve got to start to love the world and know about the whole genius of the human race. We’re amazing people.” Vivienne Westwood

Art is the raft onto which we climb to save our sanity ….

…art unifies, art heals…

… of that I am sure.
