About The Artwork
This work depicts the mother of Jesus suspended in space in a fantasy realm. The figure of Mary was used here to embody or serve as a metaphor for God. Thinking of the patriarchal history of many religions, I wanted to show a deity as both and neither male nor female, and gender as just a means by which we relate to the spiritual realm.
