Displacement: Francis

8/18/2013

Stripped naked
gave he thanks
to God

Maker
who always
loved him

Lover
who first
created him

then called him out
from heavy
guilt robes

to the weightless freedom
of total
exposure

Little brothers
followed.

This expression (peace and all goodness) was a greeting St. Francis used when encountering a brother, a friend, or a foe. It was his prayer for all humanity For our inaugural exhibition, we asked artists to reflect on some aspect of Francis’ life and work (care for the poor, animals and the ecology, the simple lifestyle, poverty and humility or church reformer, etc.). Much thanks to everyone who contributed!
