I open this with a copy of a letter recently sent to Shane. As his studio manager, I have a unique position to witness what happens within the walls of his creative spaces. In writing these newsletters, it is always my goal to share the work with as many people as possible. And as a “fly on the wall”, I believe, “Letter from Ukraine” is symbolic of the times we live in. It is a testimony to us all, that it does not matter where we live or what language we speak. Great art has the ability to bring us together and share comparative thought.
