“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when my fear is gone I will turn and face fear’s path, and only I will remain.”
From Dune by Frank Herbert “In our society today it seems like doom is lurking around every corner. Be it finances, job security, our homes, relationships, health issues or the monsters that dwell under the bed. Things are upside down all over. We are right to be afraid – if we weren’t we wouldn’t be human. But we are also right to face our fears and realize that they may not be as horrible as we think. I feel that Art is therapeutic and uplifting, & that creating our work about what we fear and viewing that of others may help us handle both our complex realities and our growing fears about the unrealized future.” - Amy Lynn Matteson |
