Students from the University of Mount Olive’s Art 166 course created a ceramic basket filled with a variety of fish. The sculpture represents a verse taken from the Holy Bible in Matthew Chapter 14: “Jesus took the few provisions of bread and fish that the people had and multiplied them to feed thousands.”

The group spent the spring semester working on the project to display inside the Glover Center for Religious Studies. The instructor says the theme for the piece unfolded as class members discussed the project inside the Jean F. Ackiss Prayer Garden.
