St. Xavier High School Chapel (Artwork #108a) Cincinnati, Ohio
Size: Eight windows totaling 880 square feet of art glass.
Lower story window shown here: 10' x 16'
This design, and the one below, are two of the three lower story windows.
The main goal of the commission was to create a minimalist, yet contemplative environment, while totaling obscuring the exterior view. The designs acknowledge the youthful exuberance of the students and challenges them to find a religious response within the context of the modern world.
The glasses used in this project were unusual for the Kesslers. Two different densities of white opalescent interact with a different color scheme in each of the lower windows.
