At the heart of the cross of Christ is unconditional love, love requiring nothing in return. This is represented in Charis Cross (Pink Sun) by the warm and vibrant pink colour at the centre, which also symbolises nurture, compassion and hope. 24 carat gold spilling over the edges is illuminating, durable and precious, it speaks of divine presence and love. The circle is the central symbol which denotes life and it's cycles, unity, wholeness, totality, the infinite and the divine. Charis Cross (Pink Sun) offers an invitation to the viewer to contemplate the universal symbol of the cross and the potential for grace, hope, healing and peace that may be found.The cross portrays the death of Christ that brings us life through faith; it involved public shame that turned to glory; it caused deep pain that brings us peace, & is a sign of identity for Christians that creates hope. The Spirit helps us understand its paradoxical meaning; art can assist that process. The "fluid" forms on the cross indicate the presence and power of the Spirit.
