Kiki Smith: Lodestar, the artist’s first major New York gallery show in eight years, features “Pilgrim”, an installation composed of nearly thirty hand-painted stained glass panels. Originally inspired by an eighteenth-century silk needlepoint, “Pilgrim” is a cyclical journey which alludes to various aspects of a person’s life, presented through the images of women. Smith has been working on “Pilgrim” since 2005, and began the glass paintings three years ago at the renowned German glass atelier, Mayer’sche Hofkunstanstalt GmbH-Mayer of Munich.

The springtime of Lovers has come, that this dust bowl may become a garden; the proclamation of heaven has come, that the bird of the soul may rise in flight. The sea becomes full of pearls, the salt marsh becomes sweet as kauthar, the stone becomes a ruby from the mine, the body becomes wholly soul.
The beauty of the heart is the lasting beauty: its lips give to drink of the water of life. Truly it is the water, that which pours, and the one who drinks. All three become one when your talisman is shattered. That oneness you can't know by reasoning.
