Darwins 201th Birthday

Today is Charles Darwin’s 201st birthday as well as the 151st anniversary of the publication of his famous book ,The Origin of Species. Darwin transformed the way we think about life as well as our understanding of how nature continues to diversify into it’s many bounds of variety.  Darwin understood the beat of life.

When I designed The Darwin Storm I wanted to capture Darwin’s immense contributions in an intense way.  I felt that lightning was the perfect way to communicate this message.  Lightning resets a habitat by creating fire and when fire destructs a forest it resets the grounds for fertile beginnings much like Darwin reset our understanding and reasoning of life itself.
