Mary Jane Miller : Silence and Wisdom

Miller, Mary Jane

Mary Jane Miller

<p style='text-align: justify;'> Two priestly bishops stand beside one another. Tradition Iconography would have named these two bishops St Nicolas, Sr Basil, St Gregory, or another named spiritual leader. I was fascinated with garment design and its significance. I renamed them "Silence and Wisdom" imagining the world needs more of those two attributes. Many saintly bishops are portrayed dressed like this in the cannons of traditional iconography. I began to ask if women uphold the many attributes bishops possess and what they would look like. </p>
