ABSOLUTION

The participants of Absolution were given beer in exchange for their sins. The beer represented Christ's urine, meant to dissolve their sins. Then a prayer was said using the lyrics of a popular song. This piece was part of Performance Art Workshop facilitated by Julia Wallace at The Jenner House in Houston. March 2011
