As a child growing up in the Florida Keys, I remember finding horseshoe crabs while playing in the shallows around Marathon. They fascinated me then, and they still do today. Knowing that these remarkable creatures have existed for more than 450 million years, surviving enormous changes to the planet around them, makes them even more extraordinary.
Endure is both a reflection of those childhood memories and a tribute to one of nature’s great survivors. Set against the shifting movement of sea and shore, the horseshoe crab becomes a symbol of perseverance, adaptability and the strength to keep going, no matter how much the world around you changes.
