---

Repetition as Prayer is a show exploring the role of the individual in creating systems and community. The power of prayer emerges not from its individual utterance but from its collective practice. These works investigate the hopeful persistence of repetition—the faith that our individual gestures, however small, contribute to a larger pattern of meaning when performed in concert with others.
