Illuminate “The dark night of the soul can illuminate our modern experience, but today’s knowledge can also illuminate the dark night of the soul.” -Gerald G. May, M.D., The Dark Night of the Soul This project is an exploration of the darkness that can be found in a season of desolation. Life can be so complicated, muddled, and overlapping. Our hope is that God is still present even through the dark nights. The objects that I have made use layers of images to represent life’s journey, experiences, dreams, starts and stops. Each stage being molded and shaped uniquely, it is a self-discovery and the forming of a dense identity. My hope through this body of work is that others would explore each stage and, for a moment, encounter the darkness. The illumination is very dim, but the light is still present.
