About Origin
This year's thematic focus of the ORIGIN series explores the implications of embodiment as it relates to being a human with a body created in the image of God. We want to explore the necessary tension and the interaction between the corporeal and incorporeal, or matter and immateriality. The reality of our bodies is central to what it truly means to be human. Central to the reality of the gospel of Christ is the Incarnate Word of God, who took on human flesh so that we could, in turn, be reconciled to God in relationship.
Amidst the material presence of other gods carved in stone, it is St. Paul himself who introduces the God of the universe to those at the Areopagus as the one in whom “we live and move and have our being.” With certainty, the Apostle is not simply offering a poetic utterance of vague direction. Rather, a sacred connection is made of both origination and belonging in God as the Creator and Source of all things.
The incarnation calls us to know ourselves as embodied beings with the full faculties of emotion, reason, intellect, and imagination, all of which work themselves out in our bodies as we live, work, create, and communicate with each other. We image God as we body forth ideas, beliefs, and values into this material world.
Art House Dallas is a 501c3 - our work is done through programs, curated events, community partnerships, and artist care in order to inspire everyone to live more imaginative, meaningful lives.
