Abstract
‘Meeting Mary’ introduces Mary, the mother of Jesus who has a place in the religious consciousness of the 3.8 billion Christians and Muslims. Muslims and Christians agree that by the power of God a Jewish virgin named Mary miraculously became pregnant and gave birth to Jesus the prophet, miracle-worker, and Messiah. The Virgin Mary is one of the most famous women in history but she has also been subject to misunderstandings, unquestioned presuppositions, and misinformation. The Virgin Mary continues to be a religiously divisive figure. The Marian traditions spans through the sculptures Mary of the Miraculous Medal from 1830 France and Virgin Mother by the contemporary artist Damien Hirst.
