Artist Statement: This work was completed in 1991. Over the years, this work had completely slipped my mind, however, while going through a box of old photographs recently, I was surprised and delighted on discovering the image, like chancing upon an old friend. Hence I decided to place it on the site, even though the work was completed some 27 years ago.
My memory is rather vague re the theme, however, I do recall paying particular attention to the inclusion of all nations, all cultures, all peoples having one common ancestry, the profound and sacred spirit of the Universe, hence, go in peace.
