​
Art is a universal language. Since the dawning of human existence, art has been used as documentation. Humans rely on art for historical, scientific and relational purposes to life. Without art, we would not have the in-depth knowledge or understanding of mankind that we do today. The arts and neurosciences compliment one another, connecting us as a society in hope and wonder- dreamers of awe and inspiration in mind, body and spirit. ~ Angel C. Duncan
