about Christopher Gosey and his work...
Iconography
depicts images of saints and sacred history in a traditional language of forms, composition, geometry, color, style, and techniques that are more than 1500 years old. After working in historic
preservation and church design, Christopher Gosey made the transition to iconographer. He apprenticed with Massachusetts master Russian
iconographer Ksenia Pokrovsky, and now has his own New Hampshire studio, Holy Images, where he specializes in Russian,
Byzantine, and Ethiopian Orthodox icon-writing. Christopher's work can be found throughout the United
States, including several churches in eastern New England, as well as the United Kingdom, Germany,
Holland, Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, New Zealand, and Bermuda. He has lectured at the Harvard Divinity School, the International Society
of Gilders, and Harvard's School
of Middle Eastern Studies. Christopher was an artist in residence
at Andover Newton Theological School from 1997-2005.
