Vision Statement
Incarnational Spirituality

Sister Kathleen Aucoin with Miriam: the Dancing Prophet

In Christian Theology, Jesus is the Incarnate God. In Jesus, as the Gospel Traditions demonstrate to us, the Divine and Human are united in the most intimate embrace, each nature reflecting the other. Thus to best experience God, we look to Jesus, the Word made Flesh.

I see sculpture to be an expression of this unity. Sculpture invites us and aids us in experiencing God in the ordinary, painful, joyful and in the sublime moments of our lives.

Sculpture calls us, invites us, and powerfully draws us beyond ourselves, or perhaps more accurately, grounds us in the seminal believe of who we are as images of the Divine.

I strive to listen, see, feel and flesh out a Theology that allows all of us to touch with our hands, see with our eyes and recognize in our hearts what we have known all along:

God is made flesh and dwells among us.

Over the past 10 years, I have been studying the art form of Sculpture. Courses of study were taken at The School of Visual Arts in New York City, and I worked as an assistant to Sculptor Sister Margaret Beaudette, Sister of Charity of New York for five years.

My works are all a product of prayer and experience. To me, true sculpture comes from the depth of the artist’s soul.

All of my sculptures -- as in every sculptor’s work -- imbibe the Spirit of the artist’s life and passion.
