BRAvarotti: an Uplifting Tribute
Image ID:
Artist statement: "The recent untimely passing of Luciano Pavorotti brought memories of my own father, who lost his life at only 70 years old, as a result of pancreatic cancer. It was my mother, the love of his life, who sang like a bird from sunup to sundown, and who was humming bits of Ravel's Bolero and Bizet's Carmen with her wonderful hospice aide just a day before she died. Many positive and healing thoughts went into the making of BRAvarotti, for the well being of those who cope with health challenges, and for their special caregivers as well. Show Us Your BRA! will always inspire me."
