Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:52:13 +0000 Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:52:13 +0000 Imagine 35 creative coming together for a weekend of fellowship, teaching and discussion on art and the gospel. Throw in the maturity and insight of speakers like Ellis Potter and artists Peter Smith, Luci Metcalfe and Phillip Archer. Let’s have some energetic performance from Dan Peterson, a stimulating environment like the Leith School of Art and together ask, “What is the Art of the New Creation?” Put it all together and what have you got? One great Scottish Interface. This year’s October event brought together all the right ingredients with just the right number of people there to make it feel like an event but not so many to get lost in the crowd. Most artists in the group had been to an Interface before, so the level of discussion went deeper and more insightful than previous weekends. On the Sunday morning we prayed for the Arts and for one another, thanking God for the gospel and the gift of Art. There was a very tangiable sense of ‘togetherness’ as we headed back to studios and homes around the country to try and serve God through our art. What they said: “I don’t know whether I should be a painter or go down the theological route. Interface has helped me understand it doesn’t need to be a case of either / or.” “There are no other Christians at my College and I don’t know any other Christians who are artists. I had no idea this help kind of help was out there.” “Please pass the salt.” http://www.uccf.org.uk/students/interface-arts/blog/2008-11/mcinterface.htm Imagine 35 creative coming together for a weekend of fellowship, teaching and discussion on art and the gospel.
