半个多世纪前这里是张学良少帅在辽宁沈阳的府邸。多年过后的今天，我们依稀还能嗅到从严密墙缝里散发出来的浓重的历史气味，但却早已事去人非。现在这里变成了老百姓业余休闲的一角，而这位勇敢的女士走下了轮椅，拼命的伸展着手臂想要挣脱病魔的纠缠。如果身体的病痛可以被治愈，那历史的伤口是否可以愈合呢？

In changing this image from sepia to back and white, it becomes much more stark and immediate -- it is happening now!

I somehow missed this image on an earlier visit. It uses all three of the key principles of visual expression that I emphasize in my galleries and workshops. It is incongruous (it is unsual for a woman to get out of her wheelchair to do stretching exercises). It is abstract (the woman turns away from us, forcing us to imagine how she must feel at this moment). And it is rich in human values (there overtones of courage, resilience, and recovery here) which all of us can relate to. And that's why it tells its story well.
