Booth calls this piece a “soulsearch” that uses the ignored or crude parts of life rather than the beautiful or serene, eliciting both pain and hope and invoking human frailty in a search for transcendence that is often lost to the everyday. Booth was the 2009/2010 coordinator for the N.D. Governor’s School of Visual Arts.
