Sacred & Devotional
Images made to carry belief when words were not enough.
This room is not an argument for one faith. It is a record of what belief asks from the hand: gold for radiance, symmetry for order, wounds for sacrifice, and faces calm enough to hold the unbearable.
The catalogue gathered these works through titles and visual clues. I keep them together for a different reason. Across materials, makers, and centuries, they turn invisible conviction into something the eye can meet.
