As inspired by Jonathan Klein’s TED talk the other day, here is the first of a series of pictures for my first virtual gallery called “We are Listening.” I’ve always been fascinated by the process and experience of curating visual art, so I figured this is a good time to take the first step.
In a time when our worlds collide, we are constantly hearing voices, noises and sounds. Do we still know Stillness? Is Quiet anywhere to be found? I propose that we take the time to learn to Listen — not just with our ears, but with our minds; our senses: our eyes, our noses, our touch, our lips, our intuitions and awareness; our spirits: with our very essence.
which are the images that speak to you?
