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:Calming the Storm: A Workshop Using Visio-Divina and Mindful Photography to Explore 'Jagged Edges'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a contemplative workshop exploring and responding to ‘Jagged Edges’\, an exhibition of printmaking\, poetry and music created by and for survivors of church-related abuse. \nLife is a beautiful gift\, but that gift can have a jagged edge which wounds and leaves us in a place of fear. Jesus’ seagoing disciples were terrified when a storm blew up\, threatening to sink the boat on which their lives depended. Their fear drove them to Jesus\, who said\, ‘Peace\, Be Still.’ Through the practice of contemplative (mindful) photography\, we will explore ways in which we can pay attention to self and environment\, learning to walk with our emotions and find Peace. \nAfter lunch\, we will use the Jagged Edges installation to ‘Be Still’ through the spiritual discipline of visio-divina. This practice can help us tell our own story and be a witness to the stories of others\, enabling us to journey towards a life lived in all its fullness. All you will need is a camera or smartphone\, and a willingness to try something new. \nThis workshop will take place in the Cathedral’s Education Room\, which is wheelchair accessible.\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 Steve Radley\, who will deliver the workshop:\nSteve is a practical theology doctoral student\, researching healing from moral injury through photographic practices of visio-divina. He holds a BTh (hons) in theology\, MSc in Psychiatry & War\, is an accredited mindfulness facilitator\, and holds certificates in counselling and MHFA. He has personal experience of mental ill-health\, having suffered from depression and anxiety following his war deployment to Afghanistan and the Gulf as an RAF Chaplain. His ministry brings together this study and personal experience. \n‘Jagged Edges’ Printmaking\, Music & Poetry Exhibition By David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton
