Many of the works in "The Awakening" will be paintings of lotus flowers, which Barrett finds not only beautiful but also resonant in the current moment: "The whole idea of them really moves me. Historically, the lotus has shown up for centuries -- centuries. And one of the things I loved about it that I thought was really pertinent for our time right now is that it represents commitment and optimism from the future, as it rises from muddy waters," she said..
