Thank you for this beautiful roundup of Keith’s work. I’ve made several pilgrimages to St. John the Divine to be with the altarpiece, and it always moves me to tears. There’s such a special energy that radiates from the work, one that’s certainly “heavy” as much as it is hopeful. 💙
I’m so glad I came across your newsletter in the QStack directory. I’ve followed your Instagram account for years and am so happy there’s another outlet to engage with your work!
Wow, thank you Michael for this wonderful comment and for being a fan of QHH both on here and on Instagram - that really means a lot to me! And yes, you're right, the altarpiece manages to simultaneously be both and heavy and hopeful, all the more reason that it is an incredible work of art!
