Instituto National de Cultura, Peru. This piece is a powerful visualization of the Paschal Mystery. The iconography depicts the pelican mother feeding her young, a symbol for Christ feeding his church through the Eucharist. The heart encased in thorns (representing Sacred Heart of Jesus) connects the Eucharist to the salvation offered in love to all through Jesus' passion and death. The heart in center opens for placement of relics.
