For two thousand years, the Catholic Church has embraced Beauty and the arts as a pathway to God. Every generation has used the artistic language of its time: from mosaics and stained glass to oil painting and sculpture, always seeking to lift hearts and minds towards the divine.
Today, light projection is simply another medium in that living tradition. Luminiscence â The Story of Westminster Cathedral is a 40-minute immersive experience of music, poetry and light, telling the remarkable story of our Cathedral. The journey culminates in a glimpse of what these magnificent ceilings might one day look like, fully adorned with the mosaics that John Francis Bentley always envisaged.
For beauty does more than simply delight the eye; it awakens the soul to the presence of God. And so we hope these laser illuminations will continue to draw us beyond ourselves⦠towards the divine.
