The Office of Religious Life is continuing to explore new ways to engage the community as the season of Lent continues. Part of this effort will soon welcome the work of liturgical artist Mary Button to campus, whose latest take on the Stations of the Cross will be up for display in Richardson Chapel through Easter. In this episode, Mary joins Chaplain Hannah for an interview about her lifelong journey rooted in art and the discovery of her career in the church. Mary also provides an overview of the Stations of the Cross as an art practice and her interpretation of the traditional form through the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic and other major events, including immigration, mass incarceration, and climate change.
You can learn more about Mary by visiting her website, marybutton.com.
Be sure to visit her exhibit in Richardson Chapel between now and the week after Easter. The chapel will be open to visitors weekdays 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Please contact Chaplain Hannah at HAdamsIngram@franklincollege.edu to schedule a specific time to visit.
