Pennies & Bones

Camp1609 enjoyed the Cildo Meireles' How to Build Cathedrals installation which has been seen at the Tate Modern in London and other museums. With 2,000 beef bones hanging from the ceiling and a carpet of 600,000 shiny pennies, a pillar of 800 communion wafers stretches through the center symbolically joining the heaven and the earth. The best part, the campers could reach in and touch the copper.
