Crosses

 

 

All liturgical design should flow from and point to the Cross

 

 

Chancel Crosses

The Cross is the focus of worship and serves as a visible symbol and reminder of Christ's sacrifice on our behalf. The Latin cross (t), a more traditional variant can be used to highlight the suffering and dying of Christ whereas a Greek cross (+) is more celebratory in Christ's victory.

Digital Crosses

"Only faith sees divine beauty in that ugly piece of wood where God truly reveals the heart of His all-encompassing love." William Wolfram, professor emeritus of Concordia University Nebraska, and long-standing benefactor, mentor, and friend to the Center for Liturgical Art uses these words to begin to explore the value of the Cross in art. These digitally rendered crosses use a reconstruction of mundane objects to create beautifully intricate expressions of faith. You can see more of his work at his website
