Grace Cornell ’21

My work represents the idea of how I feel organized religion, specifically Christianity, has left its mark on society. My work portrays four sections, starting with a pristine and perfect typical gothic stained glass window, and slowly morphs into an unrecognizable and broken image with the remainder windows. I also wanted to emphasize the lack of religious iconography in the work. Through this work, I wanted to emphasize the notions of how at first glance, the idea of religion seems perfect and otherworldly, but when taking another closer look, you can see how corrupt and broken the religious system is.
