Thought-provoking new art in Newcastle Cathedral - Seeking the Disabled Christ - The Association of English Cathedrals An exhibition that challenges the conventions of beauty and perfection has opened in Newcastle Cathedral for the summer.

Spirituality. Creativity. Disability.

“All people are made in God’s image. You don’t have to be white, male, strong or able-bodied to be complete. God made everyone with love and purpose.”

Seeking the Disabled Christ, @newcastlecathedral.bsky.social, 30 July to 27 August 2025

My brilliant friend Rachel has an exhibition of prints in Newcastle Cathedral and online: www.wobblygoose.com. Rachel's perspectives on disability theology have informed a lot of what I know -- and try to practise -- about disability justice.
