あらすじ・解説
This week’s guest is on a quest to paint 50,000 bees all over the world. What he has learned on the journey is profound and inspiring. Matt Willey is a very talented artist and muralist. He has painted murals all over the U.S. and abroad. But most of his works are not just random subjects. He is on a mission to bring awareness to a very critical part of the ecosystem that has been threatened in the last few decades by a number of environmental factors. He has been painting murals of honeybees and other pollinators. Matt has been beautifying local communities with these fabulous works of art, bringing a sense of wonder and pride to those cities and towns. But his work has much more important goal.
“Bees never forget that they are part of something bigger than themselves,” says Willey. “Their hive is a part of them. What if we embodied this idea? Perhaps we would remember that we are all connected and that separation is an illusion.”
Tune in to hear Matt’s inspiring story—how he transitioned from amateur to professional artist and what he learned as he engaged with the communities of the cities and towns where he painted.
