John Newling
Skeleton, 1994
All Saint's Church, Newcastle upon Tyne
A temporary installation in which the residue of approximately 80,000 template sheets of communion bread (after the wafer had been punched out) were stacked at intervals on the church pews.
In front of each stack was a hymnbook, printed by the artist to include only the hymn lines ending in a question mark; reinforcing the sense of absence within the deconsecrated building.
