What Art Does

Individuals articulate ideas but it’s communities that produce, support and nurture them. A single flower is the product of a whole landscape. Just as there is no such thing as a self-made flower, there’s no such thing as a self-made human.

And there are no self-made artists.

To all friends, family, collaborators, teachers, lovers, ancestors, opponents, role models, critics, bus drivers, librarians, farmers, neighbours, inventors, supporters, activists, fellow citizens and postal workers;

Thank you.
