{"product_id":"gloria-of-greymouth","title":"Gloria of Greymouth","description":"\u003cp\u003eA lusciously illustrated hardback chronicling the artist’ s creation of Greymouth’ s famous pink church, ‘ Gloria’ . In 2020 sculptor and poet Sam Duckor-Jones bought an abandoned church in Greymouth and named her Gloria. With yarn-bombed rafters, a costume bazaar, a plush loft, papier-mâ ché parishioners in the pews and pink neon light bouncing off a rhinestone piano, Gloria has become a celebration of queer creativity. In this record of Gloria’ s establishment, Sam wrestles with solitude, religion, intimacy, art and identity. He finds community in fellow artists and friendly locals, and solace in the rhythms of a quiet life. Gloria of Greymouth is a chronicle of a magnificent transformation, a manifesto for play and pleasure, and the story of an artist’ s being.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Upstart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50711566057695,"sku":"9781776923267","price":65.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/2185\/3151\/files\/9781776923267.jpg?v=1785714311","url":"https:\/\/lamplightbooks.co.nz\/products\/gloria-of-greymouth","provider":"Lamplight Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
