Collection: Uniquely Human: Barbara Kuzara

August-September 2023

 

Being human is complex. Humans are full of hope, promise, fear, and anger.

Plato believed that “humans have immaterial mind (souls) and a material body. That our souls exist before birth and after death. The soul is the source of everything we feel –love, anguish, anger, ambition. And most of our mental conflict as humans are caused by these aspects not being in harmony”.

In this series, I use abstraction and imagery to emphasize the uniqueness of being human and express the emotional side of being human and the role those emotions play in everyday life. The vulnerability, thegrittiness, the sadness, the hope and all the symptoms of simply being human.

After all, we are all just passing through. Be kind.
