"Rolf Rohn, Renate Rohn, and their father before them have worked with us for many years. We have nothing but praise for them, for their work, for who they are. The work they have done for us is done with the heart…They have never let us down."
—Sisters of the Holy Spirit
This heartfelt sentiment from our longtime clients reaffirms our commitment to creating meaningful sacred environments. It reminds us of the profound power of churches, where prayer and action, intertwined with inspiring art, elevate spaces into sanctuaries—a glimpse of Heaven where God's light illuminates a perfect world through words and grace. Our faith, expressed through images and stories across time, echoes Pope John Paul II’s call for artists to celebrate true beauty, revealing the eternal and reflecting the Spirit of God.
Our artists dedicate their lives to both their craft and the Catholic faith, infusing their work with a purpose beyond aesthetics. Through evocative depictions of Christ’s life, His disciples, saints, and other holy symbols, they become instruments through which divine truth is communicated. Like their predecessors, these iconographers play a vital role in shaping sacred spaces. In doing so, they convey the promise of salvation. Their art is not mere decoration; it is a conduit for awakening the soul and drawing the viewer into a deeper relationship with God.
Every project begins with conceptual sketches. Working alongside liturgical designers and church teams to develop and refine their visions, the artists transform ideas into meticulously researched, biblically accurate murals, statues, art glass, mosaics, and more. This mission requires careful attention to liturgical correctness while evoking emotions—solemnity, pain, joy, or love—that are integral to church services, celebrations, and devotions. Saints and symbols are thoughtfully incorporated into each space, creating a visual narrative that both educates and enriches parishioners’ spiritual journeys. Each piece is personalized, reflecting the church's unique history and patronage.
At Rohn & Associates, we are honored to contribute to the design of timeless Catholic environments that uplift and inspire congregations worldwide. Through our work, we integrate sacred art, furnishings, colors, and architectural details that foster revelatory encounters with the sacred, fulfilling Pope John Paul II’s appeal for artists to express divine beauty. While the labor often goes unrecognized, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve the Church and help bring the light of faith into the lives of others.
