Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "Through this process, I learned that passion is contagious and the desire to help others is fulfilling in extraordinary ways. Because of my own aspirations, I'm satisfied with the feeling of being a part of something bigger than myself, and I believe that Borlaug may have also felt the same way."
