Christa - female bronz statue by Edwina Sandy 1975
"Although Christ is often depicted artistically as being of virtually any race-African, Asian, Latino, Caucasian-the idea of seeing Christ on the cross as a woman sparks automatic and seemingly universal rejection. Perhaps this is not surprising, given the dominance of the male form and male language about God, which has been the norm throughout Western history. When it comes to speaking about and imaging the divine, our society suffers from a paralysis of the religious imagination."
