By Her Own Radiant Light, 2002


Platinum and white gold leaf on copper

By Her Radiant Light was created as a private memorial and installed in Christ Church on the Hill in Toronto. It speaks of the cycle of life and the soul as an eternal essence of light. The phases of the moon circle the moon’s reflection on the surface of water where each piece of light is separately attached to the wall, transforming the ephemeral into a physical reality.
