The Missa Gaia (Earth Mass) series was part of the body of work completed during my year as artist in residence at Waikato Polytechnic College in New Zealand in 1988.
They were inspired by, and created while listening to, Paul Winter's Missa Gaia mass, written for the consecration of the Cathedral of St John the Divine in New York City.
