St. Joseph the Worker Chapel (Victorias Milling Company)


The St. Joseph the Worker Chapel (Chapel of the Angry Christ) is located inside the Victorias Milling Company in Victorias City, Negros Occidental, Philippines. The church was designed by the Czech architect AntonĂ­n Raymond. The church is also known for its modern altar painting known as "The Angry Christ" painted in vivid colors by Alfonso Ossorio, Filipino-American abstract expressionist artist.



Mosaics are by the Belgian Adelaide de Bethune. The materials and talents were provided by the local artists Arcadio Anore and Benjamin Valenciano. Arcadio Anore executed Bethune's designs for the brass plates in the pulpit and baptistery while Benjamin Valenciano did the wooden image sculptures inside the church including the images for the Stations of the Cross.
