Cloud of Witnesses
‘Feathers: Shield’ Images of faith and divinity today.
A double ring contains 300 paper feathers. These feathers contain their own history, each has been cut-out, curled, folded, hand-stitched and knotted onto their own individual place. Making requires time, care, precision, quiet, rhythm, repetition. Repetition is imbued within - each stitch - a prayer. A meditation aiding a track to unknowing, an embrace with the divine.
4 March to 27 April 2025 St.John’s Church, Waterloo. London
