2023 Summer Spirituality Series at St. Peter’s, Lewes all programs start at 7:00PM in the Parish Hall King’s ice cream to follow! June 1 The Rev. Canon Mark Harris, Despair, Resistance, Hope and Everything Else A short exploration of spiritual force, art making and the agenda of the prophet Micah. Mark Harris, priest associate at St. Peter's, is an artist / printmaker, working primarily in making prints from woodblocks and linocuts. For the past year and a half, he has been exploring the relation between despair, resistance, hope and "everything else." The "everything else" is the destination to which all our despair, resistance and hope points. This destination is a space in which spiritual force is made real, where the promise of abundant life is real. How words and images can help point us towards this destination is the challenge. Art in this context is a "reading" of the map that the object provides. Art is not the object; it is the narrative of each person's engagement with the art object as a pointer. Thus, we are all artists in our viewing, in our making, in our making it a tool for our own spiritual journey. Mark: “With luck we will experiment with this notion in the presentation itself. “
