Bishop DeDe Duncan Probe of Central New York
This is a Vestment set created for Bishop DeDe Duncan Probe of Central New York.
It speaks to her ministry and the beautiful images of her Diocese.
From the water flowing over the rocks of Watkins Glen to the trees whose roots hold and support each other to images important to her.
The Consecration of Bishop Carlye J. Hughes
This set was made from African textiles collected primarily from Cameroon, home to the Good Shepherd Home in Bamenda.
The sheer silk running through it is the Spirit – Ruach, the breath of life that touches everything as it winds its way throughout the set. Note especially the Monarch butterfly on the Morse. Made of dichroic glass by Sweet Harmony Crosses of Vermont, it is particularly important to the Bishop.
The Consecration of the Bishop of Arizona
This set was created for the Consecration of the Bishop of Arizona. It reflects the beauty of the deserts, canyons and rivers that traverse the state.
Of prominence, is the Phoenix whose wing forms the Morse. Ocotillos in bloom can be found. Fabrics created especially for this set by Becke Killion of Ocean Avenue Silks add particular beauty throughout.
Notice how the living waters are at times, prominent and even raging; while at other times, barely seen.
