Images to challenge and inspire.
Images to challenge and inspire.
Tuesday January 20, 2009.
One of my pieces has been included on this publication from CIVA: Images of Faith. Christians in the Visual Arts is an excellent organization --- I have particularly enjoyed the quality of writing and imagery in their journal CIVAseen. There are many artists involved, from many backgrounds, including Tim Hawkinson, Tim Lowly, Sandra Bowden, and Makoto Fujimura. This new publication is another example of how CIVA has worked to get faith-engaged artwork into the world.
Images of Faith contains 100 images by contemporary artists to be used for projection in any context that wants to deepen faith reflection, whether in churches, seminars, retreats, or classrooms. The works, curated by Sandra Bowden, are organized thematically, and are accompanied by descriptive texts that add information about the artists’ work.

Down with thoughtless “clip art”.
Bring on the truth, beauty, and challenge of art.
