About this artwork

Artist Keith Thompson references Charles Darwin in this piece, stating, “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” This painting embodies the spirit of adaptation—a child in a rigid, urban environment finds freedom and joy by flying a kite. The contrast between the structured city and the open sky reflects how resilience and creativity allow individuals to thrive, even in challenging or unexpected circumstances.
