Sacred space exists where a community encounters the Divine
Presence and offers its worship to God.
G.R.Hoelzeman Studios assists communities and individuals connect with this Divine Presence through Liturgical art, design and consultancy which facilitates transcendent experience, communicates Grace, and reveals God's boundless beauty.
We serve Catholic and other Liturgical Communities, dioceses, religious orders, and individual devotees through a collaborative creative process informed by ancient traditions and vision for the future.
G.R.Hoelzeman Studios is committed to creating dynamic liturgical art and environment which engages the community sacramentally at many levels.

The church is a metaphor for the Church, as St. Augustine eloquently describes in his sermon for the dedication of a church. The church building becomes authentically sacred only when it is capable of forming real people into the Body of Christ. This spiritual journey does not end, or even culminate, with the completion of construction or the dedication of the new space.
