From my sketchbook, continuing theme of “the heart” I attempt to sketch pure joy - the pure heartfelt joy a toddler can do so easily.

At the start of every new year, I have a word in mind that I believe the year will represent. This year it is “heart”. Last years word was “kindness” as a positive regard we have for each other, while “heart” is the extension of “kindness” to the heartbeat and understanding of the collective whole.

Expected something great - it delivered.😀
Flow ("straume" in Latvian) suggests stepping into river current of life.
No words was fantastic, as it forces the audience to actually look and listen.
So many challenging adult themes of belonging, loyalty, betrayal.
