beach hairs Peter, 2022
~24 X ~46 in. cotton, synthetic polymers handwoven via digital jacquard

The image is a still of the subject moving through space, long hair floating to the side.
Disconnection between the subject and viewer is continued through an upside-down orientation, reflecting Peter's desire for an inverted crucifixion, feeling unworthy of a format similar to Christ's.
