Lace and Grace at Night
Lace and Grace at NightLACE AND GRACE brings together the colliding themes of lace-making and the hymn Amazing Grace.Lace offers a way of combining strands of thought into a unifying image.The threads are carefully connected together with seeming ease and without obvious joins.The delicate tracery of lace are like streams of consciousness woven from thin air. The patterns created offer strength in unity and grace in thought.The words from Amazing Grace bring together John Newton’s bitter life experience and subsequent conversion to the anti-slavery cause into a hymn that has been adopted by diverse communities across the globe.These two themes show that we can all weave our own threads in life.The sculpture celebrates the 300th anniversary of the birth of John Newton, who wrote the hymn ‘Amazing Grace’.Within the sculpture there are patterns inspired by Bucks Point lace making and blends these patterns with words from the hymn:I once was lost, but now am foundHow precious did that grace appearAnd grace will lead me home
