As we move between the close of this remarkable year and the beginning of our Summer Intensive, we will be sharing some not-yet-seen moments and artistic reflections from the journey we experienced together!
One memory our dancers continue to return to is the impact of our Exodus production.
In this image, our dancer portraying Jochebed is lifted high in an arabesque as she raises the baby Moses toward heaven. Behind her, two singers stand atop pyramids, beautifully proclaiming through song that this child has come to deliver his people from bo***ge, a foreshadowing of the greater Deliverer to come, Jesus.
There was something profoundly moving about seeing dance, music, and Scripture unite in this moment. The vulnerability of a mother placing her child into God’s hands, the promise of deliverance, and the unwavering faithfulness of God all converged in a scene that continues to resonate deeply with us.
Seeing art through the lens of Scripture elevates it because it allows us to perceive deeper realities beyond the immediate beauty of the work. Art can move our emotions, but Scripture helps us understand why it moves us and what eternal truths it may be reflecting.
Today, these words from Scripture seem especially fitting for this artwork:
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.” — Isaiah 43:2
This artwork speaks about a mighty God who does wonders and faithfully walks with us through every trial. As artists we can perceive through the eyes of faith, and art becomes not merely an expression of human creativity but a reflection of divine truth. It invites us to marvel not only at the work itself, but at the God whose beauty and glory it reflects.
