Via Crucis Art Exhibition
Via Crucis is a touring exhibition, made up of 14 new images for the Stations of the Cross.
The images are on paper and use mixed media, which includes charcoal, metal leaf, ink and pastel. They are the work of Caroline Waterlow, a multi-disciplinary artist based in the Westcountry. Where the traditional Stations emphasise the suffering path of Jesus, these new images follow the gospel accounts of Christ's Passion.
Caroline Waterlow's images are inspired both by Pope John Paul II's "Scriptural" Stations of the Cross and the objects and tools associated with the Passion in the Arma Christi imagery.
The exhibition can also be used as the inspirational for your own Stations of the Cross devotion, and a short liturgy is available in the Cathedral throughout Lent. The exhibition runs until 29 March.
