SEE The Stars

“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” ~ Vincent VanGogh

I recently visited the VanGogh Alive the Experience at the Arizona Science Center and it was a very moving and inspiring exhibit.  Seeing all of VanGogh’s writings and quotes along with his paintings on large screens helped you get lost in his creative mind.  With classical and violin music playing in the background your senses are overpowered and you take pause as you connect with a person that seems so familiar to so many of us even though we never met him.  As you connect with VanGogh you realize your in a large room full of people doing the same thing.  We are all connected by the same person and are all feeling and thinking something different.  I would love someday to talk to people after experiencing an exhibit or event and get different perspectives, what stands out to one person and opposed to another.  Moments like this remind us that if we take pause, we connect, we learn, we experience, we see…

Micah Tutay - So do I! My mother is a very talented artist and went through a “VanGogh” phase. I love that I learn more about her when I learn more about the artists she loved.
