Magnificat: Illuminations of Mary’s Song from Luke 1

The Art of Kelly Kruse

with Theological Reflections by Kathryn Heidelberger

Exhibit: March 17—May 20

Artist Reception: Sunday May 20, 1:30 PM

Kruse describes her work as contemporary illumination. She seeks to awake in the viewer a sense of spiritual contemplation. Using acrylic ink and metal leaf over textured paste on watercolor paper, she illuminated each line of Mary’s Song. Heidelberger’s medium of prayer accompanies each abstract image, often inspired and informed after liturgical elements. Their goal for these works is to invite us in to experience Mary and the word of God.  Visit Kruse's website for more information about their collaboration.
