Art Creates Ritual at Service of Remembrance

On May 20th, the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins Medical Campus held a first-ever Service of Remembrance for the families of patients who died there in the past year and the staff who cared for them. I worked with Rhonda Cooper, the Chaplain at the Center, to design an interactive sculpture on which family members could weave their memories and messages to loved ones. Hundreds worked to craft a remembrance. The final piece will be displayed at the Center.
