THEME
CONNECTION-The human experience carries an authentic universality that connects us all. These connections seem to arise from a collective subconscious that we all share, no matter our culture, generation, or gender. This exploration is what we recognize as human emotion, and our connections are at the core of it all.

What we have experienced in this past year and counting has been extraordinary. We are analyzing connections now more than ever, our connection to one another, to nature, to our country, to humanity.  Whether we are connecting emotionally, physically, or spiritually, the never-ending desire will stay with us always.  Show us what CONNECTION means through your perspective.
