Advent 2012 - Week 1 - A blank canvas

For Advent in 2012, the Kairos Arts Ministry Team created, with the help of the congregation, an evolving art installation. 
For each of the four weeks in Advent, slips of paper were available to the congregation, on which they could write a prayer. The Arts Team had designed a silhouette that would be the eventual, final image. Each week, we glued the prayers to a frame so that the image was gradually revealed over the four week period. 

 Here is the front of our church building, with the frame installed off to the side of the entryway.

 

You can see that the frame is blank. This is how it looked before any prayers had been offered.
