SUMMARY:'Jagged Edges' Printmaking\, Music & Poetry Exhibition By David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton
DESCRIPTION:Jagged Edges is an exhibition of printmaking\, poetry and music created by and for survivors of church-related abuse. The artists – David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton – draw links between their own experiences and the story of Jesus as he approached his crucifixion. \nContent warning: This exhibition includes images of torture (crucifixion) and references to moral and spiritual injuries caused by church-related abuse. \nThe Biblical ‘Stations of the Cross’ trace the path from Pilate’s house\, where Jesus was condemned to death\, to Calvary\, where he was crucified. The Chaplaincy to Survivors in the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle brought together Sarah\, David and Peter\, all of whom have personal experience of church-related abuse\, to explore the following question: ‘What happens when survivors use the Stations of the Cross as a means to speak both to their fellow survivors and to those who let them down in the communities where they were harmed?’. \nIn ‘Jagged Edges’\, each survivor has approached the Gospel Passion narratives from her or his own perspective and through a different medium – linocut prints\, music\, poetry – to co-create their own Stations of the Cross. \nThe title ‘Jagged Edges’ reflects the unique elements of survivors’ individual experiences\, which overlap but do not fit neatly together; it reflects the dissonant combination of God’s love and the harm done in and by God’s Church in those experiences\, and it reflects the fact that survivors often engage with the Church from the periphery because that is where they feel safe. \nThe new Stations draw meaningful connections between the shared narrative of Jesus’s suffering and the lived experience of individuals harmed in Christian churches. They invite us to look at Jesus’s trauma and to see his story in a particular light: as a story of abuse and as a story of God’s love for and solidarity with those who have been abused. They are also an invitation from survivors to the rest of the Church and beyond to engage in the work of repair\, reconciliation and recovery. \nClick here to learn more about the Diocese of Newcastle’s Chaplaincy to Survivors.  \nImages: ‘Foot of the Cross’\, ‘Peter’s Denial’ and ‘Simon from Cyrene’ by Sarah Troughton. \nJoin us for the following creative workshops inspired by ‘Jagged Edges’: \n‘Jagged Edges’ Printmaking\, Music & Poetry Exhibition By David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton \n \nWriting into Hope: Creative Writing Workshop with Kate Fox\, Inspired by ‘Jagged Edges’ \n \nWAITING LIST – Reflecting on your Relationship with Christ through the Medium of Linoprint

SUMMARY:WAITING LIST – Reflecting on your Relationship with Christ through the Medium of Linoprint
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, you will learn the basic skills of linoprinting while considering how this art form can help you reflect on your relationship with Christ and engage with His experiences. \nConsidering works from the two recent linoprint exhibitions at the Cathedral: ‘Jagged Edges’ (currently on display) and ‘Seeking the Disabled Christ’\, you will be invited to explore how you might express something of your own encounter with Christ in images. You will hear about how the processes involved in the practice of linoprint help the artists to express their faith\, and you will create your own print. No previous experience required! \nThe necessary tools and materials will be provided. However\, please be mindful of your clothes – this can be a messy process – please bring an apron if you wish and keep in mind that your sleeves may get inky if not protected or rolled up. Both Sarah Troughton and Rachel Holdforth will be on hand to provide guidance throughout the session. \nThis session will take place in the Cathedral’s Education Room\, which is accessible via a lift.\nIf you have any questions or find that you can no longer attend\, please email Dr Maggi Creese\, Lead Officer\, Chaplaincy to Survivors – m.creese@newcastle.anglican.org \nAbout the facilitators: \nSarah is a mother\, wife\, psychiatrist and educator (Associate Dean) working in the North East of England.
