Host Fred Hollingshurst interviews visual artist Peter Bell discussing Bell's current art show which features representations of butterflies. Bell, who lived in South Africa, speaks of the sense of excitement and magic he gets from the natural environment and of his adjustment to living in Newfoundland. In Bell's view, the artist intuitively understands his community and expresses his undertstanding through his art. Includes images of the pieces in the exhibition courtesy of the MUN Art Gallery.
