About the artwork

The digital artwork shows a stylised interior of St Catherine's Cathedral, devoid of human presence, and exudes a serene, almost timeless atmosphere. In the foreground is part of a richly decorated, presumably Persian carpet, whose deep red and blue tones contrast subtly with the grey stone floor around it. This floor does not look even, but has a lively texture of lighter and darker patches, as if it bears the marks of centuries of history. To the left and right are two imposing dark wooden benches, beautifully carved with Gothic motifs that add shadowy details to the scene. Further back, several simple wooden chairs appear, arranged side by side, and again to the left and right two pews, which together create a passage to the altar. The altar itself is austere but centrally placed, topped by two slender candle stands symbolising light and devotion. The upper half of the artwork is dominated by tall, stained-glass windows that let warm colours through and cast patterns on the floor. These walls are white and visually lead up to a vaulted ceiling, which gives the room a lofty, almost celestial feel. Below the windows, nine statues of saints, probably apostles, are stately and each with their own characteristic pose and attribute. The whole combines sleek forms with subtle textures and colour accents, creating a harmonious balance between devotion, art and architecture. This digital artwork thus captures the essence of a sacred space in a contemporary, visual interpretation.
