Artist Statement
“In any event, if we were to notice all the beauty of the world, what would become of us? The sunflower would stop us in our tracks, the cloud-tossed sky delay us for hours. We’d never get to school. We’d never get in the car.

We are lucky in childhood, if we have good hearing: if we hear beauty and love and uselessness shouting in our ear, all the time, from every corner of the natural world.”

Sharman Apt Russell, An Obsession with Butterflies,
New York: Basic Books, 2003, p. 205.
