Robert Koenig's Odyssey consists of a crowd of 32 monumental wood figures , each 2.5m tall. Most of these male and female figures were carved in the village of Dominikowice in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in South East Poland between 1997 – 2002. Odyssey deals with important issues of migration, forced or voluntary. It talks about heritage, belonging, displacement and people’s place in the world. This project which started out as a search for Polish ancestral roots is taking on a pan-European and universal dimension.
The Saint John's Bible is a work of art and a work of theology. A team of artists coordinated by Donald Jackson in Wales and a team of scholars in Central Minnesota have brought together the ancient techniques of calligraphy and illumination with an ecumenical Christian approach to the Bible rooted in Benedictine spirituality. The result is a living document and a monumental achievement.
The Statons of Cross by Siku originally come from the Manga Bible which has had more than 100,000 sales distributed in over 16 countries. As a follow up Siku produced The Manga Jesus which contains some of the most stunning artwork of that story.
