Stations Of The Cross (XI) : 'Incontrovertible Fate' Painting

This is the eleventh painting in my version of Stations of The Cross, a Christian devotional series of images depicting the last few hours of Christ's life. Here we see Christ in a state of anguish as the inevitability of his fate overcomes him. He cannot escape his future and this is symbolised by the mini crucifixes which rain down on him. The sky is blood-red, punctuated by black clouds. His aloneness in is fate is pointed up by the desert setting. He possesses the goat-like horns and claw-like feet of Satan, with whom he has consorted - marking him out as a 'tainted', flawed, but very human and earth-bound being. His sense of mortality is crushing. This is a 'dark night of the soul' where he must make his own way through a spiritual crisis. All is blood and darkness. Is he a 'fallen' being in the eyes of his God, risking abandonment, or is he learning what it is to be human?.... Although currently not for sale, this work may be available once the series is completed.
