Icons of the Incarnation
This new book by Sophie Hacker celebrates an extraordinary fusion of artistic
imagination and creativity, and marks the next phase for nine sculptural
artworks which were first seen in Winchester Cathedral in 2008. Alongside
sumptuous reproductions of the art, the book offers us an insight into the
artist's creative process and the links she makes with her own theological
vision. It also describes the processes of working with musician Sarah
Baldock to visualise the themes inspiring Messiaen's La Nativite du Seigneur.
Accompanying medications by Roland Riem add a third dimension to this
collaborative project between art and music, reaching out to the inexpressible
in poetry. Foreword by Richard Harries.

Sophie Hacker and Roland Riem will be attending a book signing event at the
Winchester Cathedral Shop on 13 November 2008 from 10am - 12pm.
