A MONUMENTAL SACRED ART PROJECT
He Is Risen
The Final Week of Jesus Christ
The final week that changed the world.
A collection of monumental original paintings bringing the final days, death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ to life at a scale meant to be experienced—not simply viewed.
Explore the Vision →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 people of every Christian tradition, culture, and background to encounter Jesus Christ through beauty, story, and sacred art.
THE COLLECTION
Painted at a scale
meant to be experienced.
Each painting is a chapter in one sacred story: love, sacrifice, suffering, triumph, and Resurrection.
ENTER THE COLLECTION →WORKS IN PROGRESS
The story is being created now.
Finished high-resolution artwork will replace process imagery as the collection is prepared for public exhibition.
INSIDE THE STUDIO
See the work taking shape.
These paintings are being created at a scale that is difficult to understand until you see them beside the artist, visitors, and the studio itself. This is a glimpse into the years-long process behind He Is Risen.
THE ARTIST
Michael Malm
A lifetime of painting the human spirit—and pointing toward the divine.
Michael Malm is known for narrative realism, luminous figurative work, and sacred imagery that feels deeply human. For He Is Risen, he is undertaking paintings so large and complex that only a handful can be completed each year.
This is not simply a series of paintings. It is a years-long artistic undertaking.
