Vision Statement

An egret doesn't blend. She's visible even from afar: Pure, stark white in a world of muted color, motionless in the shallows and completely visible, as if lit from within.

But she does blend, from an underwater perspective. What is whiter than white? Light itself, and that light is her camouflage. She is both visible and invisible, dependent upon perspective.
