'Eternal God, we seek clarity and reassurance in a bewideringly complex world. Grant the patient trust that will enable us to sense your hand in the emergent, the ambiguous,the random and the fragile. Give us courage to embrace your vulnerability seen in Jesus Christ. |

Kairos Arts - Art Installation ‘Reconnected’
You are invited to 'Reconnected' – a sanctuary to reconnect back to oneself. This powerful piece of artmaking reflects the emotional challenges, hope, and empowerment experienced by those affected by domestic abuse when using the creative arts. This project is the fulfilment of four weeks of artmaking by those with lived experience of domestic abuse and sexual violence. Each artist has previously attended one of our six-week therapeutic arts programmes, and is now part of our monthly drop-in group.
The idea for the art installation was born out of the group's expression of reconnection that they have discovered in these sessions, using art to support their healing processes.
