Description: | These hassocks are worn, and often have knee impressions in them from years of people communicating with their god, or just thinking. They are not well-used anymore. What does kneeling mean now? Initially I considered covering them with fabric that reflected various religious traditions i.e., specific colours for mourning. Instead of referring to any particular tradition, One Hundred Hassocks consists of twenty black hassocks and eighty in various greens. Black speaks to/reflects the void of grief, and the greens are about renewal. |
