Notes
- Abstract:
- The purpose of this thesis is to show the common lens of Aesthetics and Theology through the interpretation of an original series of paintings. As an artist who is also concerned with theology (faith seeking understanding) to create art inevitably will be an expression of that faith. The goal of art for this person is both aesthetic and concerned with the spiritual because the artist cannot detach themselves from either. In this way, this thesis shows the common lens both disciplines share creating hermeneutics of art and theology in relation to my work. By constructing an ecclesiology and Christology I show that theological reflection was the inspiration for my art revealed through the use of symbol. I then look to what theology might have to say to the series to show that art can be a valid type of theology.
