Celebrate the beauty of this earth with Kari Perkins, renowned costume designer and mixed-media artist. Inspired by this anonymous poem, Perkins has created beautiful silk and wood sculptures which will dance in the wind, inviting you to revel in the meditative nature of the exhibition.
“Walk gently on this earth with purposeful steps
You share this space with seven billion human beings
And countless other precious life forms
Just like you
They all want to be happy
Just like you
They all need love
We’re not going to survive unless we walk
Gently on this earth together,
Until we touch something in others that
Feels just like the shards of our own pain,
The fluttering warmth of our own joy,
Until we sew their wounds into our hearts
And seal it with our own skin”
