This sculpture which curves gently into the church reflects the United Reformed Church’s progressive and open attitude to worship, and the use of the space as a faciltiy for people of all faiths. The design is based on sacred geometry found in Islamic and Hindu traditions and aims to explore how geometry unites different systems of symbolism and representation.
