Like a stirring memory from a dream - it lingers. Our origins, stored in our soul may lie sleeping for some time until awakened. Animal encounters, imagery of a particular landscape, the sound of traditional songs and musical instruments or the beauty of art and crafts from a particular region can bring those memories to life. Facets of our past journeys often resurface – calling out, longing for a voice and new expression. For an artist, that summons can be irresistible. Throughout the ages ART has played an important role celebrating ideas, beliefs, regions, peoples and mythologies.
