I am thrilled and honoured to be invited to participate in a major European Congress this summer (July 21-23, 2022), on the subject of Mary Magdalene. The participants will explore different aspects related to Mary Magdalene, such as: biblical testimonies, apocryphal and gnostic traditions, the iconography and the symbolism of her figure.
CUMBRE MAGDALA takes place in Madrid, Spain. My contribution is a 45 minute presentation of my Mary Magdalene perspective as seen through my drawings and mosaics. This conference is also being streamed worldwide.
The Magdala Summit is the most important international meeting ever held around the figure of Mary Magdalene.
Expert researchers from around the world will shed light on the importance of this woman in history, the reason why she has been labeled, wrongly and for centuries, as a prostitute, her true relationship with Jesus of Nazareth and whether she was, as the current pope has declared, the apostle of the apostles.
An exciting journey through the life and most unknown work of this woman who has been denied her true place in history, but who has risen from the shadows to position herself as a female icon in today’s society.
