The Divine Darkness

In “The Divine Darkness” traditional printmaker Lauren Stevens invites us into spaces of wonder and hope, referencing images from prophetic books like Isaiah that imagine the restoration of order in a cursed world.

In Tandem

Sarah McMurry explores the quilt and the bounds of its function in her senior show, In Tandem.

Refugium

The four artists in this exhibit were invited because their practices are informed both by nature and their deep faith in Christ. While creation’s beauty can serve as a refuge, it ultimately points to our only true place of safety and security: the person and presence of God.

Where Heaven Meets Earth

This exhibit of exquisitely rendered icons is made in the Byzantine style by artist Connie Ehrlich.

Made using traditional egg tempera with natural pigments and genuine gold leaf on special wood panels, each icon reveals magical nuances of light and color. These contemplative artworks were created specifically to remind us of the intersection between the physical and spiritual worlds. The result is a set of quiet, sacred objects of luminescent beauty, an antidote to a world of neverending noise.

Stitches & Sacred Stories

Artist Sandra Scott-Revelle weaves together storytelling and appliqué to feature individuals she refers to as “the lesser-known lights in the vast heavens of Black history.” Sandra researches the narratives of formerly enslaved people and prayerfully shapes their experiences into inspiring short stories, poems, and fabric art that “provoke thought and prick the heart.”

Prepare a Table

In Prepare a Table, artist Erica Alexander focuses on slow, repetitive processes like hand stitching and natural dye that invite both the artist and viewer to pay attention.

Time and the Word

Sandra Bowden’s work is a complex meditation on time, incorporating Biblical archaeological references and ancient text. She invites viewers into the mystery of the Word, breaking down each text she handles and making the words themselves into a visual meditation that is rich with many layers of meaning.

Reverberation: Faith in Motion

In this exhibit, Emily invites viewers to contemplate elements of faith such as courage, love, perseverance, and discernment through works with intimate details and dreamlike perspectives.
