Finding paradise…

Raqib Shaw spent sixteen years on this mural as he portrays his feelings of growing up in various environments. Thankfully his adulthood is pretty much spent in Paradise. So, though the piece is titled Paradise Lost it seems he actually found his Paradise nowadays. Read about his full piece of art currently at the Art Institute of Chicago.

Turmoil and strife is where this adventure begins. I felt the need to capture some of the incredible details of these stories. People and animals and their environments are exquisitely detailed. Copyright 2026 Pamela Breitberg

Sometimes when I visit this piece I prefer to stay in the “Paradise” stages that emerge throughout the last half of the mural. Just amazing and beautiful. Copyright 2026 Pamela Breitberg

Paradise can be

Many or few things at once

Counting my blessings.
