Exploring themes of sacramentality, contemplative vision, and 'the visible and the invisible' in art and theology.
About this Event

Kirby Laing Centre Arts is hosting a mini-conference in collaboration with the St Edward’s Institute for Christian Thought on the theme of “Imaginative Encounters: Imagination, Presence and Place.”

Interspersed with music and prayers, we will explore the interaction between the visual and the textual through such themes as ‘sacramentality’, ‘contemplative vision’, and ‘the visible and the invisible in art and theology’. We expect papers by members of the KLC community including Sara Osborne, Otto Bam, Genevieve Wedgbury, and the Rev. Dr Craig Bartholomew, as well as by the Rev. Dr Mark Scarlata, vicar of St Edward King and Martyr Church and author of multiple books including Wine, Soil, and Salvation in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament.

Our aim for the day is to plant seeds that will blossom in future gatherings and publications in theology and the arts.

Lunch will be provided and a wine reception will follow at the end of the day.
