‘This exhibition emerged from stillness.’

by Ben Clayden 20th October 2023

I owe a lot to the witness and practice of Russian Orthodoxy, but I left the church soon after the invasion of Ukraine. I was deeply shocked that one Orthodox country, with the support of its church, was bombing and killing civilians in a neighbouring Orthodox country. I wandered in the wilderness for a while and somehow found my way to the Quakers in Cambridge.
