This movie is a real TRIUMPH.Each art work sings of inner life. Each painting is executed in a unique way withdelicate or bold colours ideal and specific for the chosen subject.This exhibition is a deeply touching picture of overcoming all impediments and creating beauty through art work. One can feel how joyous it is for the artist to explain her journey. The photography was clearcapptured the colour nuances andsensitivity of the artist with her expressive hands and the delicacy or boldness of her paintings going seamlessly from one view to another. The music selected was an art work in itself a conversation with what was being presented in the movie.For all the presenters who have worked as a harmonious team to create TRIUMPH I sayBRAVOBRAVISSIMOA great collaboration.
