The love in us that spurs us to act is explosively powerful and tender. Every way each of us expresses that love is unique and irreplaceable.
I carved this image--my first print-- at my kitchen table in the fall of 1999, listening to news of the WTO protests on Democracy Now. The phrase popped into my head and rang me like a bell. It seemed like the most obvious and most important thing I wanted to share with this world, today more urgently than ever before.
Shout love, whisper love, let love fuel us, sustain us, and bring us joy. There are a million stories and meanings to this art that people have embraced all around the world, most of which I'll never know. If it's meant something to you, I am so honored, and I thank you for all that you have done and will do to resist and survive. Be brave, and take care.
