About the Item
Hendrik Vale Lovers, shrouded in white, lay in embrace while nuns and a priest look on with hands clasped in prayer. There is a white rabbit nearby, another priest leaving them to be, points over his shoulder to them. Hendrik Valk, the artist, was an architect who designed and built churches, and during his career, clearly had strong thoughts and impressions about religion and its impact on people. He designed churches that he believed were more inclusive of the congregation.
Hendrik's thoughts and perceptions are carried out in his work and left to the viewer to interpret his meaning. In a time when Religion is being politicized, this is a timely piece of art to reflect on.
