Our church created this beautiful collage picture during our worship services in December. If you look closely at Jesus, you will see that the entire nativity scene is made out of advertising that we received for this Christmas season. There are four panels -- we worked on one at a time so no one really knew what the whole picture was going to look like. We just filled in the colos written in each section. On Christmas Eve we set up the whole picture and it literally looked like stained glass. So it is possible to see the real reason for Christmas in the midst of all the hype and merchandising.
Happy Birthday, Jesus!
I love the message: We can always choose where to put our focus, no matter what the majority is doing. How large was the final collage? Was it "life size"? It's really eye catching.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barbie. It is almost life size -- four pieces of foam core board duct taped together -- about 3-1/2 x 5 feet!
ReplyDeleteSo when are you going to start a blog??? (In your spare time!?)
