Station 12
Jesus dies on the cross (Patrick Doherty)
Oil on Acrylic sheet, Mirror
95 x 190 cm with 91 x 223 cm mirror
Photographer: Jason Blake
I was at the pub with Patrick on a Wednesday night. Suddenly Pat took off his necklace, that has a small pendant of Jesus nailed to the cross on it, and handed it to me.
I asked him why and he told me, “Because you need Jesus more than me Kim.”
Biography
Kim Hyunji (aka KIM KIM KIM), is an artist working predominantly with painting from South Korea, currently based in Melbourne. She completed her Bachelor of Arts at Curtin University, Western Australia in 2014.
Recognising Australia’s multiculturalism and diversity, Kim’s main subjects are the culturally attuned creatives of her generation, the Millennials. Through painting, Kim explores her generation and the role social media plays in the construction and portrayal of identity. Her paintings reference the processes of social media photography through their use of high contrast and the inclusion of reflective and transparent materials.
Meditation
In Your hands He placed Himself:
all that He was,
all that He had ever been,
all His beauty,
all His obedience,
all His loving.
In God’s hands He placed Himself.
He was returning to His father,
He was going home.

Reading
It was about twelve o’clock when the sun stopped shining and darkness covered the whole country until three o’clock. And the curtain hanging in the Temple was torn in two. Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Father in your hands I place my spirit.” He said this and died.
