I am working with a Roman Catholic community who has asked me to create a privacy screen for their reconciliation room. I met with the pastor, deacon, head of worship, and the music minister. The question I asked them is, what does reconciliation mean to this community and what scriptural reading best describes the direction of their spiritual leadership? They cited a reading discussing the woman caught in adultery. The symbols and images in this reading led to a very fruitful discussion on the sacrament. My commission as a liturgical artist is to gather thoughts, attitudes, prayers and their personal theologies. I will use material and the art language to affect that space. The art object must help each person grow into a deeper relationship with the Creator and the world to which she or he wishes to be reconciled. What are your thoughts?

Below are two reconciliation screens I have done for other communities.
