Quick Overview
From the beauty of a starling murmuration swirling through the sky, to the underlying structure of the universe as described through science, the world around us is full of wonder, possibility, and elegance. This art series invites you to enter a doorway into feeling the presence, power and joy of connection to life all around us.
- we are inextricably connected to nature just as we each physically consist of the same atoms;
- we are inextricably connected to each other, reflecting the flourishing of our birthright: purpose, fulfillment and happiness. This often involves a journey toward appreciation of and maybe even a re-connection to nature, to ourselves and to each other.
Themes include science concepts such as Fibonacci sequence, fractals and string theory.
