"Tongues of Fire" at St Mary's Church Old Basing
Picture
In many places of worship the seasons of the church calendar are marked by a difference of some kind, not only in word but in the visual too. Such changes strike the worshipper and call for fresh attention to be given. The arts can play a significant role in ringing the changes and serve to direct congregations to a deeper engagement with God through a fresh layout of sacred space
I work alongside congregations in a guiding way to draw together ideas and direct a communal project or design and produce the desired piece(s) as a commissioned artist.
