St Oswald's Anglican Church, 100 High Street, Glen Iris, Victoria, Australia

THE CRUCIFIX
Mixed media: wood, pottery, chrome, nails, rope. The crucifix confronts the pain of crucifixion ina a deliberately shocking image of suffering.

ST OSWALD, KING AND MARTYR
Wooden sculpture. Oswald was a seventh century King of Northumbria. Educated by the monks of St. Columba at Iona, he triumphed on the battlefield in the name of Christ, and established Christianity in his kingdom. He was killed in battle, a later venerated as a saint.

"THE ASCENSION OF CHRIST"
A set of four bas-relief wooden sculptures depicting the Ascension of Christ rise behind the altar in the Chapel of the Ascension.

"THE BETRAYAL OF CHRIST"
This bas-relief wooden sculpture depicts the moment when Judas betrays Christ with a kiss while the deciples and soldiers converge on them.

"THE LIGHT WITHIN"
Abstract expressionist in style and strong in colour and movement, Craig's oil painting aspires to affinity with music.

"THE RISEN CHRIST"
"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

Matthew 11 verse 28

"KNUD SMENGE ORGAN"
The eleven-stop, two manual mechanical-action organ is cased in fine Tasmanian oak with Tasmanian blackwood for the stop panels and music stand, and the beautifully crafted inlay.
