During my stay in Brooklyn last month, I came across a wonderful park nestled within the campus of the Pratt Institute of Art. The campus itself felt like an oasis in the middle of the city, with its greenery, winding paths, and a vibrant energy that seemed to flow from the art students bustling about. Sculptures dotted the landscape, giving the space an almost magical quality, as if creativity itself was growing from the ground.

One particular sight caught my attention—a series of trees adorned with colorful handprints made with paint. The vibrant hues stood out against the natural tones of the bark, creating an nice visual contrast. Was this part of a formal art installation or simply an impromptu act of creativity by students passing through.

This playful expression of human connection felt like a celebration of art, nature, and spontaneity, blending seamlessly into the inspiring atmosphere of the Pratt campus.
