Irises
Vincent Van Gogh -  Saint-Rémy: May, 1889

 NAMI's choice of the Iris was inspired by the  art  of  Vincent Van Gogh.  Van Gogh's letters  provide a poignant commentary on his brilliant work and his unrelenting struggle with mental illness.

"As for me, you must know I shouldn't precisely have chosen madness if there had been any other choice."

"I am losing the vague  dread, the fear of the thing. And little by little I can come to look upon madness as a disease like any other."
