Become What You Receive
On April 29, 2016 Sarah Hodges-Kolisnyk showcased a new body of photographic work in a very unique location at All Saints Church (at the corner of Broadway and Osborne). Become What You Receive: The Exhibit, was shown in a small, intimate prayer chapel adjacent to the main church sanctuary. It featured the spaces and faces of Saint Benedict’s Table Anglican church community, but also explored broader Christian themes.
“I feel that the work is an invitation to consider what brings us together, in faith, at Saint Benedict’s Table,” said Hodges-Kolisnyk. “But the show also engaged in a much broader dialogue about what it means to come together in worship, reflection, imagination and communion. I hope it resonates with viewers in very different and personal ways.”
The project began in 2014 when Hodges-Kolisnyk created the cover image for the Saint Benedict’s 10th Anniversary commemorative book. Over time, she came to realize that something meaningful was emerging in the photographs and she continued to photograph the church and the community on a regular basis.
