He Is Risen — The Final Week of Jesus Christ

THE VISION

To help the world see Him in a way it never has before.

He Is Risen is creating a monumental visual account of the final week of the Savior’s mortal life through the work of internationally recognized artist Michael Malm.

Some scenes will be reimagined from new perspectives. Others will depict moments rarely—or perhaps never—given this scale on canvas. The aim is simple: invite all people of every tradition, culture, and background to encounter Jesus Christ through beauty, story, and sacred art.
