Big City Spirit

 

As a visual artist, I explore the themes of City and Spirit, to discover ways in which we in cities can use an awareness of Spirit, along with our personal energy and the energy of cities themselves, to creatively improve our lives – for example, to heal racism, overcome injustice, and live in liberation.  I think of the Pentecost story in which ‘All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages as the Spirit gave them ability.’ (Acts 2:4) And I pray for the coming of many new languages for talking about cities and their complexities – from each individual, from every culture and faith, and also from all of the creative arts.
