"Gracias a la Vida" or Thanks to Life, is the title of a song written in Spanish by Violeta Parra.  Spanish is my first language and the sense of gratitude that is expressed is the sense I'm moved to convey in this series.  

 

Mark Jenkins, art critic, The Washington Post

“Overhead is Neuhaus' “Rays”, a fluttering series of yellow and gold paper banners. The artist, born to Polish refugees in Mexico, has often executed minimalist gestures, but usually in the martial hues of red and black. Here she turns to cheerful colors, inspired by Chilean singer and composer Violeta Parra's song "Gracias a la Vida" - Thanks to Life. Amid all the shadows and mourning, (referring to the other works being exhibited) the installation offers a place for sunlight and gratitude.”
