21st Faith

Kevin Swanson:
(nodding vigorously whilst deeply creasing his eyebrows)
I sure do Kevin, two boys and another on the way!
I can barely imagine the looks on those little faces when they
sit down for their Thanksgiving meal to be disappointed with
no pumpkin pie for dessert! what truly dark day’s lie ahead,
and with dark days, tell us whats happening with the weather
this week Tony (As the camera’s move off of Kevin, an assistant
rushes over to dab the sweat lining his newly purchased hairline)
Tony Perkins: (Tony angels his body and begins to gesture to the green screen)
Well Kevin, this afternoon we’ve managed 18 degrees across
the state, but that is the last of the hot weather as recently Markus
Wight and Leon Hallow opened a case for adoption, so we will
see a change over the next few days turning much cooler,
and a lot more cloud around. Theres a weather front thats drifting
this way south that is bringing heavy rain to the north east
of the state for which we see reason to believe coincides with Mrs.
Victoria Range signing the lease on a 1 bed studio apartment
to share with her girlfriend last weekend. In the southern corners
of the state we will see breaks in the cloud, however the light
showers mid state will help keep the temperature up. Later in
the week we will see the showers continuing to blow a fairly
strong breeze with time reaching gail force, looking like a great
time to avoid the beach, as well as Brenda Hall , whom we can thank
for recently publishing her queer nasty girl zine. In the north the
temperatures will just about to be dropping to single figures, touch
on the chilly side here. As we look to the end of the week we see a real
taste of autumn as things continue to turn cooler, with plenty more
showers around, assuming Gary Bronte wont stop cruising his local
cemetery, the weather will continue in this pattern for some time.
(Tony adjusts his tie and throws a seemingly unenthusiastic double
finger guns towards his camera)
Back to you Kevin.
Kevin Swanson:
After the break we have onsite reporter Richard Bankwell finding
out how the upsurge of local coffee shop Adam & Steve have
singlehandedly created the downfall of the paper napkin industry,
but first are our children being targeted for free thinking in public
school health classrooms …
21st Faith: Tell us about you and your
practice
Larry: With an important focus on hand
work, my practice takes traditional fine
crafts, such as goldwork embroidery,
tapestry weaving, sculpture and stained
glass, and explores contemporary themes
of dark romanticism, through a queer lens.
What drew you to take part in 21st Faith?
How is faith important to you and your
practice?
Growing up in a Protestant household,
faith has always been an important theme
with my parents. Through their practice
of faith, it carried me to many prodigious
and monumental religious sites, in which
i developed a reverence for the traditional
hand crafts found around the church.
I was drawn in to take part in 21st Faith,
as it was an opportunity to further explore
my opinions around faith, in relation
to Christianity.
