Project Location: Raleigh, North Carolina
Client: First Baptist Church Raleigh
The First Baptist Church of Raleigh is a historic religious institution located in Raleigh, North Carolina. Established in the early 19th century, the church has a rich history and has been a significant part of the local community for many years. Known for its architectural and historical significance, the church likely features a distinctive building that reflects the style prevalent during its construction.
Crafted with a profound sense of community and spirituality, the design for a large artist print titled “The Light of Community” is a visual hymn for the First Baptist Church. This design, reminiscent of stained glass, envisions a radiant tableau where myriad colorful and diverse hands reach harmoniously toward a central light. The symbolism of hands signifies diversity, unity, and the collective strength of the congregation, forming a powerful visual metaphor for the interconnectedness within the church community.
The artwork’s vibrant color palette creates a luminous effect that beams a celestial glow from the exterior. Each hand, representing a unique individual within the congregation, contributes to the overall kaleidoscopic beauty of the composition. The central light serves as a focal point, symbolizing the guiding force that unites the community in faith and purpose.
