ROCK, EGG, BALL

Prayer Books

Rock, Egg, Ball by Yani No Way is a prayer book created as if it were spoken in the words of my daughter when she was two years old. It is created with the first signs of awareness/anger/shock as prayer. It is the release and transformation of hope/fear that surrounds the love/loss of cancer as a life-threatening illness entering a family and touching the lives of loved ones. The pages of the book are experienced as an interactive performance, as the book is read through a series of rolled open pages, with images and words spoken as the rock/egg/balls move.
