Lux Mundi (statue) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lux Mundi (statue)
''Lux Mundi '' (Latin for "Light of the World") is a 15.8 meter (52 ft) tall statue of Jesus at Solid Rock Church, a Christian nondenominational church near Monroe, Ohio, in the United States. Designed by Tom Tsuchiya, ''Lux Mundi'' replaced the statue ''King of Kings'' which was struck by lightning and destroyed in 2010. ==Design==
The statue shows Jesus stepping forward with a welcoming gesture, a pose inspired by the Gospels of St. Matthew and St. John.〔Vaccariello, Linda. ''Rock Solid Sculptor'', p. 20. ''Cincinnati Magazine''.〕 Facing I-75, the statue will stand on a foundation decorated by rocks with a cascading water feature. For inspiration for the statue’s design, Tsuchiya translated parts of the surviving Greek texts of the Gospels. Using two themes drawn from the texts: αγάπη (“affectionate love”) and εξουσία (“authority”), Tsuchiya designed Jesus stepping forward with his arms in an embracing pose.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= About Lux Mundi, the Sculpture of Jesus at Solid Rock Church )〕 Because of its pose and inviting quality, ''Lux Mundi'' has earned the nickname “Hug Me Jesus”.
