This is about the power of art to tell a story that cannot be told any other way. This is art that everyone who has suffered through a loved one with illness will understand and be released by. This is art that should be seen in hospitals--not out in lobby's or in waiting rooms but where those who are in the inner circle of suffering, and also is chapels. This is each mother's son dying crucified on the limits of our knowledge. This is the love of heaven on earth of mother for child, and the hellish darkness that mocks her making shadows of her love.
