"Epiphanies of Jesus: Intimate Encounters through Portrait, Metaphor and Symbol" by Local Artist, Carolyn Carter

"Epiphanies of Jesus: Intimate Encounters through Portrait, Metaphor and Symbol" by Local Artist, Carolyn Carter

During this season of Epiphany, whose name means “showing forth”, there are three ways in which Jesus’ true identity shows forth within the gospels: the visit of the Magi, Jesus’ baptism, and Jesus’ first miracle of turning water into wine. Wonderfully, the revelation of Jesus doesn’t end with these accounts. He continues to reveal himself as a boundary-defying, intimate partner to all to seek. In the exhibit, “Epiphanies of Jesus”, artist, speaker and writer Carolyn Carter, shares her own personal “showings” of Jesus which came to her during life challenges, questions of faith, and existential wanderings. She hopes that her artwork will serve as a prompt to notice how Jesus might be “showing forth” to you during this season of Epiphany. 

"Epiphanies of Jesus: Intimate Encounters through Portait, Metaphor and Symbol" will be on display in the Mary C. Daly, RSM Art Gallery from January 27 through March 8. Visit the Mercy by the Sea website for more details as you plan your visit. Additionally, you are invited to attend a Meet and Greet with the artist on January 28 at 2:00 p.m.
