Over the past few years I've had the opportunity to create art for our church, and the various projects always form a new lens through which I am able to see Christ, and a new appreciation for the rich visual content of church history. I've found application for church architecture, iconography, Greek alphabet, and so on to be integrated into the art. This year's Easter sermon series is titled "Rejected • Wounded • Exalted" and the art concept is centered on two contrasting depictions of the Chi Rho--the Greek symbol for Christ. This first piece is called "Wounded Chi Rho" and seeks to communicate the starkness of Christ in his humanity, falling down to earth for us, and rejected and bleeding. I'm praying that I'll be mindful of this truth these coming weeks. // I have decided to offer this piece and the following one as prints, due to several requests. Please comment below if you're interested. // Wounded Chi Rho. 8x10: $28. // 11x14: $42.
