  • Description

    The Chapel of Stonemilkur is a large-scale immersive installation where visitors remove their shoes and step onto a 20’x20’ floor of river stones, cushioned by a felt mat. Four massive boulders anchor the space, juxtaposing soft and hard. Ambient lighting and resonant drone music charge the atmosphere and heighten affective experience. Over the exhibition’s duration, a 360-degree mural on primed cloth will be developed, then removed and archived. Handmade beeswax candles will be available for visitors to light and place on a boulder, as offerings or intentions to the greater-than-human spirit, echoing rituals of sacred space.
