THE ARTERY. Echabarne titled her show "A Wing and A Prayer" because it expresses her feeling that we are flying on one wing in a dangerous time. The bas relief pieces are like prayers or wishes for all people, everywhere, to enjoy basic human rights. These rights are to love who we want to love; the right to be safe and nurtured; the right to be joyful in expressions of our own making. Free
