Abstract
This paper explores how cathedrals, particularly Liverpool Cathedral, serve as spaces where theology and art intersect, enabling deeper reflection and public engagement. Traditionally centres of cultural and spiritual fusion, cathedrals now act as neutral spaces for dialogue between the sacred and secular. By fostering Mutual Critical Dialogue and embracing contemporary art, these spaces invite diverse perspectives, creating opportunities for both personal transformation and broader social change. Using Tracey Emin's artwork, For You as a case study for reflection, the paper highlights how such art challenges and redefines traditional theological boundaries, positioning cathedrals as dynamic spaces that bridge tradition and modernity.
