For the deconsecrated St. George's Church in Hebertshausen near Munich, the Gustav van Treeck workshops created luminous and powerful stained glass windows based on the ideas and concepts of contemporary artist Jerry Zeniuk, the first project the colour painter has realised with glass.
Colour harmonies, spatial effects, light influences and the historic church interior were the key factors in the design and development of the windows, which the glass painters worked on using etching techniques according to the artist's instructions. This resulted in harmonious shapes in different shades of colour in the fields, and the artist's windows were inaugurated in October 2020.
