I conceived this suite of six prints as a narrative: from a harmonious Eden, through threat of attack, devastation of war, grief, mourning and, finally, regeneration.
We fill the craters left by the bombs.
And once again we sing,
And once again we sow
The force of life never surrenders.
~Vietnamese Song, Anonymous
The persistence of war affects our lives daily - if not directly, then indirectly, often imperceptibly. No matter how much we dream of peace, war persists. This leads me to conclude that war is a part of humanity, a part of our collective soul.
