About the Project
Looking for Arete artworks and writings are my deeply personal wonderings about the immense curiosity, bravery, commitment and perseverance that true excellence requires. Usually, they precipitate from a distinct moment of awe about a unique or specific arete.
The artworks I make for Looking for Arete are given as gifts to individuals participating in the project.
There are many reasons why I am giving the art away, but the noblest is this:
Because (right now)
The world needs (us to feel)
More awe (beautifully).
Awe: a feeling of reverential respect mixed with fear or wonder. -Oxford Languages
