Painting Mary Out of the Darkness

Iconography is based on the idea that, in a prayerful
atmosphere, art can not only represent something
holy, but can, in itself, be holy.

 Sunday afternoon Michael Debus demonstrated this as he
took a blank canvas and created a profile of Mary from
the pieta while music played and 180 people watched.

This piece will be auctioned at the Ceili on March 5th.
