A Simple Word by Melissa Clark

Sometimes the right words at the right time are as simple as, "Welcome". And that is what I heard Sunday upon arriving at the Obras Foundation in Evora Monte, Portugal. You see, sometimes when life is utterly distracting in your home town, you have to go far, far away to a different continent, a different country, a different culture to get the job done. And it is here, among the chickens, pigs, sheep, castles and a handful of other artists that I hope to do just that.
