About the Artwork
We are called not only to walk in the light but to also be a light for others, sharing our flame with them so that we grow radiant together.
When one person walks in the light and shines a path for others to follow, we become the guarantors of the vision and mission of St. John Baptist De La Salle.
Located close to the area where students gather for morning assembly, this artwork reminds us of the importance of a community that keeps the flame burning. As the last site of the series through the school, the artwork seeks to reflect the identities of the school, the people and the spirit of one community walking in the light together.
