This picture makes my heart soar. It is a group of young Afghani women who are organizing the Center for Contemporary Art in their country. It is one of those Shouts to world from an unexpected place that there is more to say, more to see, and more to be from people who want, and are taking the chance, to get those things.

There is just something magnificent about the colors against the sand and dried mud background; there is something revealing about the colors that have been simmering and now have a place to boil over; there is something gorgeous about these young women’s souls.
