This Advent, as we prepare for the coming of the Light of the World, Patmos Art Center presents the exhibition Lux Seminalis by Gabriele Wilpers of Essen, Germany. Lux Seminalis, or Seeds of Light, explores and reflects upon human existence in a new and original way through glass sculpture, found objects and paint. The centerpiece of the exhibit is a series of small glass window studies, later used in a full scale glass installation, Stations of the Cross: windows from the Catholic Church of St. Valentin in Limbach/Baden, Germany. As in the Stations of the Cross, light and its many stunning and colorful manifestations take center stage in the paintings. Patmos Art Center, 39 Anchor Drive, Orleans, MA. Open Monday–Saturday. Free admission. For more information visit mounttabor.it/lux-seminalis.
