Abortion Debate

"...When I in awesome wonder...". It has been
about 46 years since I began my first art/science
works as my medium to research the development of
life in the embryo. It is that overpowering
feeling of awesome wonder that propelled me as a
teenager and that moves me now to continue this
questioning research on the Embryogenesis of
Breath website. The art studio and laboratory
research disciplines for both analysis and
expression in the website are focused on Picturing
(representation, illustration, etc.) and Knowledge
(theories about development, growth, form,
structure). But Ethics (the moral dimensions of
biological research), religious beliefs and
abortion debates surround the pages of the site
like a halo of bright light and underlie the site
like a dark shadow.

Your story about the weight of responsibility
associated with your personal decision to become a
mother is inspiring. And your "good-for-you-act",
watching, in terror, the oxygen air bag go in and
out, as you waited beside the child who had come
through heart and lung surgery add your light and
your darkness to the growing meaning of this
conversation about the awesome wonder of human
development. Thank you dear Ruby. Jack
