Here's what the show at NBMAA will look like. Seeing the images as one big cluster mounted around a corner gives the impression of a dense display of religious imagery. I remember these kinds of installations from old catholic churches in Southern Germany. They were donated by grateful patrons who overcame disease, famine, loss, or other miseries. The pictures were often painted or embroidered, they showed saints or other religious imagery.

I just bought your Light Work limited edition photo and LOVE it. Wish my own walls had as many of your photos as the museum does.
I'm glad you like it, Lisa. The image is important to me, the line in the book (by Heinrich Heine) that you can see between the model's spread fingers, mentions the city in Germany where I'm from.
