Future Icon Painting

Following an exploration of universal iconography in its many expressions, I was compelled to create the series 'Iconography of the Future'. While religious icons guided people's beliefs in Medieval Europe through the scarce production of icons with massive social impact and spiritual content, the secular world generates vast amounts of imagery in a free, organic and ever-changing manner. No longer is there a single, standardized spiritual type of imagery guiding all people. This is was a turning point in the history of art. Limitless possibilities in styles, symbols, and chromatic diversity have now emerged to suit individual preferences in the digital era. I wondered how iconography would have evolved had the Medieval tradition followed its trajectory. Today's iconography would have to be abstract enough to capture the collective psyche, yet devised for individuals to recognize themselves within it. A digital icon guiding humankind at a time of transition, growing out of religion and into a new secular phase. It encompasses the sacred mandala structure, a spiritual compass that centres the mind and entre meditative states. Dynamic yet still, this futuristic icon symbolizes a dynamic process at a time of unparalleled freedom.
