This is probably one of my smallest and most intricate collages I ever made
to honor the victims of 9/11.
We will always remember.
The colors and use of material (international newspapers) evoke the turmoil of that day.
This collage was juried into the members show of the Chester County Art Association (CCAA, West Chester, Pennsylvania)
Requiem Aeternam
Requiem aeternam, Dona eis, Domine ; et lux perpetua luceat, Luceat eis. Te decet hymnus, Deus, Hymnus Deus, in Sion, Et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem. Exaudi orationem meam ; Ad te omnis caro veniet. Requiem aeternam...
Traduction en Francais
Le repos éternel,
Donne-leur Seigneur,
Et que la lumière éternelle brille
Brille sur eux.
À Toi est due la louange, Dieu,
La louange, ô Dieu de Sion,
Et on accomplit les voeux qu'on te fait dans Jérusalem
Exauce ma prière,
Que tout être de chair vienne à Toi,
Le repos éternel...

Prayer in remembrance of 9/11 Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy. -Saint FrancisAnonymous Guest 11 Sep 2014
