La Bible Est-Elle Vraiment La Parole De Dieu?

Gary Goldstein

2000

I found the same book - ’Is the Bible really the work of God?’ - published by the Jehovah Witnesses in several languages. The book is a book of erasures, creating an external frame and then with a black marker, erasing a different angles, the text, the page. The repetitive movement was calming and created the possibility of disconnecting from what was external and internal to myself. Despite the fact that it deals so much in darkness, the subject matter, is really about the glimmering of light on the surface of water, and the glimmering of light as seen through a screen. The impossibility of seeing, but the hope of seeing something, and being able to see something beyond.
