Nurturing
“The more we nurture ourselves and our environments both natural and built, the more fulfilled our lives and those of others to come, will be.”
Designer William McIntosh
How we live today speaks volumes to how the future will look. The more we nurture ourselves and our environments both natural and built, the more fulfilled our lives and those of others to come, will be. This is our instinct of nature and nurture, of not only survival but empathy and the inspiration of beauty.

“How we live is intuitive, brought to fruition by our need for security, love and the inspiration that beauty brings.”
To surround ourselves with those we love and the inspiration of beauty expands life, rippling to those within our circles and to those within theirs. Though these are times of physical distancing, it is the emotional connection that will pull us through, by physical object, memory and a sense of belonging and place. These are the things that life is built upon, why we bother to create and collect. How we live is intuitive, brought to fruition by our need for security, love and the inspiration that beauty brings.
“Beauty in this time of challenge and lessons, reminds us of our humanity, tells us to slow down, to not only notice but to truly see our surroundings and those within.”
Our draw to beauty is telling, it speaks volumes to who we are, how we were raised and our personal aspirations for the future. This comprises the ceramic work of Peter Lane, they are not only the reflection of natural materials and the evidence of the hand, but encapsulate the timelessness of beauty and how these elements resonate within who we are and how we live. They are in truth, physical documents of emotion, time and idealistic hope, as they evoke all that comprises the human experience.
Beauty in this time of challenge and lessons, reminds us of our humanity, tells us to slow down, to not only notice but to truly see our surroundings and those within. To appreciate all that we have as we hold life close, building the future we hope to see.
