Walking as an Act of Contrition

 

 I’ve been walking the words ‘Hail Mary’ on the untended field that stands behind my house. Beating the bounds, Walking the words on a regular basis, reinforcing the pattern to mimic the way synapses create crenulations in the brain. The field is not well used so will be ideal for making a prefer path in the grass.  I anticipate walking this Act of Contrition on a regular, possibly weekly basis, documenting digitally. On completion I can then arrange for an aerial photograph to be taken which I would use as a digital print fabric.

 

Calligram Creatures

A calligram is an image created from writing, traditionally used as a magical symbol, they can be seen in ancient bibles.

 Here I have created Calligraphic creatures to use as amulets 

 

can non ago per meus tripudio quod can non ago vaccus is

can non ago per meus velico quod can non ago vaccus is

can non ago per meus poena quod can non ago vaccus is

can't live with my dance and can't live without it

can't live with my critic and can't live without it

can't live with my pain and can't live without it

forgive me
