Nick Cave was
named the artist of the year this week by the
Alpha & Omega Project for Contemporary Religious Arts, but we want to talk about
Naudline Pierre. Like Nick Cave and even
Kanye West, she’s an artist on a mission, and isn't that exciting? Both Cave and Pierre are masters of mixed colors, but Cave is an Old Testament messenger, while Pierre is more New Testament. This Sunday, we celebrate
Nick Cave as our artist of the year for his righteousness, but also
Naudline Pierre as our
artist of the week for restoring our faith in gentle blessings.
