Description

This is an image of an installation consisting of overlapping religious texts including Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, Judaic, and Christian ones. Overlapping religious texts are written parallelly on ten rows of transparent cardboards of varying lengths, folding evenly and installed on the wall. Within every fold, there is a fluorescent light illuminating the text behind. All the fluorescent lights are set parallel to each other.
