The outrageous light of this world: interview with Chris Duffett

Chris Duffett, from the Light College and Collective, is an artist with a desire to bring words, comfort and scenes from God’s heart to those he paints for.

Chris’s fine art seeks to bring the colours and mystery of other realms. His work is playful and joy filled with an overemphasis of light.

He talked to Camilla Lloyd at Church Mission Society in Oxford on 3 March 2020 as part of the For Art’s Sake Pioneer Conversations Day.
