Margaret Olsen Hemming and Picturing the Sacred Feminine
Show Notes

To mark the exhibition opening, The Sacred Feminine in LDS Art & Theology, at the Center Gallery in New York, its curator Margaret Olsen Hemming speaks about global artworks that imagine what Heavenly Mother is like. The LDS doctrine that we are from heavenly parents is not new, but recent LDS artists from around the world are building on the artistic foundation laid more than 100 years ago by poet Eliza R. Snow and painter John Hafen to further a discussion about the nature and role of the sacred feminine.

Music for the episode is “Women of Faith,” lyrics by Matthew B. Biggs and music by Michael Kosorok.
