Good Friday Art (7 - 35" x 72'; Spring 2018)
Location: Lincoln Berean Church, Lincoln, NE
Created for: Good Friday experience at Lincoln Berean Church
In order to create the artwork for the event, I worked with Mark Mathewson, Lincoln Berean Church's Theologian in Residence. For this series we worked through God's relationship to man starting in the Garden of Eden, working through being expelled from paradise and perfect relationship to God through Christ's death on the cross and then on to the New Heaven and New Earth.
The pieces are painted on muslin fabric and then attached with staples to "T" shaped structures which were anchored to the stage floor. The banners were placed in chronological order with the cross in the center. The cross is the significant moment in which God made the way back to Himself through the death of His Son Jesus Christ. Following the cross the images now show God among His people, now longer separated from them. Through accepting Christ's work as FULL payment for our sin (which distances us from a relationship with God) we too can walk with Him daily as Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden, not only in this life but in the one to come.
special thanks to Evan Hatcher for coming up with the way to display this work on stage simply and effectively.
