>>> As the focal point of the Parish of the Holy Sacrifice, which is in itself an important artistic hub within the campus, the Crucifixion is a double-sided figure of Christ. Facing one side is the crucified image and the resurrected Christ on the other. The elongated figures silently accentuate the solemnity of important moments in the Christian life: that moment of death and sacrifice, and that moment of God’s promise fulfilled. Made of a material Abueva is comfortable with, the hardwood cross is suspended above the altar supported by steel rods. (sculptour.wordpress.com/)
