In "Unity for Peace," 36 of his pieces -- noted for their spare
lyricism and gentle brush strokes that evoke radiance and joy -- are suspended between the
columns of Grace Cathedral.
You don't have to be Christian to appreciate the spiritual work of artist
and Dominican priest Kim En Joong. Kim has said his abstract paintings express the passage
to eternity, but he leaves it to the viewers to interpret meaning -- he doesn't even name
his paintings to ensure he doesn't limit the imagination of the audience.
