CHAPEL ARTWORK

Chapel Artist: Father Marko Ivan Rupnik

The Chapel’s main worship space is a treasury of sacred art that silently but eloquently preaches the Gospel. Designed and executed by the world-famous Jesuit artist, Father Marko Ivan Rupnik, the dazzling mosaics that dominate the sanctuary are timeless in their appeal: they look as if they had been there for a thousand years, and yet there is something new to see in them on each viewing. The Scriptures speak of the Church as being made up of “living stones,” and the elements of these haunting images seem to have a life and energy all their own.
