WRIT AND VISION "HANDED DOWN AND ALTERED" kirk and many other artists have submitted pieces to this project. This project consists of groupings of metallic "plates" made with sturdy gold paper. Each artist draws/writes "the things of [her] soul" (2 Nephi 4:15) on the first plate-then hands down the plates to the next person who will alter the plates by drawing/writing the things of his soul. Then the third, then the fourth, etc. At the end, each group of plates is bound, reminiscent of the brass or golden plates of Mormon scripture. This is a meditation on canonized scripture as collaborative art, as well as personal testimony. |
