Till We Meet Again
Imagine on the road to the cross Jesus and his mother come together for a final goodbye. How does one say goodbye to a child, to a mother?
When families are separated by borders, unfair laws and long distances for years, sometimes forever we imagine their goodbyes include tender words with the images and memories of their lives together bubbling up.
Much like a collage of color, words, sounds and images that they carry with them on their journeys along with all the sadness, hopes and the heartache of saying goodbye.
There are many objects and images that remind us of mothers, these are a few. Some are romantic and nostalgic while others represent the difficulty that some families experience.
We chose objects and then we decoupaged them with words and images that symbolized all the memories that we hold together as we say goodbye to mothers. Words that sustain us for our journey ahead, words of grief and saying goodbye and words that hold the memories of our time together.
What are your words of Goodbye?
