Overcome

March 19th, 2010

Easter—when Christ died and came back to life 3 days later—is hard to communicate visually. The specifics of a cross and a tomb represent the factual elements, but how do you portray the abstract ideas of hope and possibility, new life and victory, forgiveness and restoration… Add to that, this church’s intention to discuss topics like fear, pain and grief.

The solution was to use color and texture to depict the vitality and life that can explode out of darkness. Christ overcame the weight and despair of the world’s sin, giving everyone the option of beginning life anew.
