Superhero

embroidery on white button-down

Created in 2012 for West Kensington Ministry on Norris Square's annual Artists' Stations of the Cross. This button-down shirt represents the Station, "He is stripped of his garments". The bleeding heart of Jesus is emblazoned like a superhero's emblem, but stitched on a humble button-down shirt. During the performative walk through the park to visit each station, the quilted arms of this piece were cut into squares and distributed to the assembled viewers as a memento of the event and for use as a talisman of prayer.
