A note from Beth
Made of Light.
Each of these began as light. When a pattern goes active in someone, I see it – a spark, a burst of colour in the body.
I asked my mother, Barbara Davis, to paint exactly that: not the idea of a pattern, but the moment it activates.
What you’ve been looking at is her hand and my seeing, together – a whole person, made visible.
Read the story of the paintings.
