Seaside baptistery in the name of John the baptist

Location: Tsikhisdziri, Georgia

Year: 2019

‍

“John answered them all, “I baptize you with water.
But one who is more powerful than I will come,
the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.
He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.”

- Luke 3:16

The main idea of the baptistery is to experience the space through the very ritual of baptism -
with water being the main element of it, the only window of the building frames the sea,
while the church bell is rung by the rainwater.
