From the foreword by Cheryl Lawrie:

...one of the rare ways those moments come is when we recognise ourselves in another, and find ourselves in their story. This book is full of those moments. Each page hints at a reality that just might resonate with our own. Each photograph holds the possibility of us seeing ourselves in a new way, of turning our world inside out, so just for that moment another way of being seems possible. Each painting offers a promise that failure and fragility, glory and possibility are bound, inextricably, together. Each page we turn might bring an encounter where we just might find ourselves in a place where our human-ness is no longer what we fear or what we avoid.
