Selected Collages from The Reliquary of Complicated Truths Collection
The Reliquary of Complicated Truths was an interactive visual art exhibition at Duke University Chapel the month of February 2022 that invited viewers to consider complicated truths in life for which there are no easy solutions. Presented by the Chapel, Kate Bowler and the Everything Happens Project, Reliquary of Complicated Truths by Lanecia is an installation created from discarded wood, paper, and other material that invites viewers to place within the cracks of the work their response to the prompt
“In my life, there is no cure for....”
The commissioned exhibition took its inspiration from a scene in a book by Duke Divinity School Professor Kate Bowler.
In addition to discarded wood and paper, the installation is created from plaster, gold leaf, cheese cloth, and thread.
Accompanying the main installation is a series of collages on wood that reflect upon insights shared on The Love + Paper Project page of Kate Bowler's website.
