Purification of the earth Painting

Author:Noktys Title:Purification of the earth All copyright reserved by Noktys Art House Author’s description: „The symbolism of purifying fire is ancient and widespread throughout the world, to all peoples. Fire cleansing rituals have existed in all cultures and still exist in our times even though some have lost their mystical, spiritual or even pagan significance. In his three hypostases, as a sacred fire, symbol of light and creative energy, as a teluric fire bestowed upon men by the legendary Prometheus, and as a consuming, demonic fire, this energy present in the intimate structure of matter has an important place in the mythology of all peoples. Associated with the cult of the sun, the fire is present in the initiatory rites of the agrarian peoples, who practiced the incineration of vegetal remains to purify the earth in order to prepare a new agrarian cycle. The artwork is focuses on the idea of ​​purification by fire, in the broad sense of the word, applicable not only to the earth but also to animals and humans. Passing through fire is considered not only healing of the plague but also a way of purifying souls. . Perpetual regeneration of the nature that feeds from the ashes resulting from the burning … the perpetual renewal of the man who has the power to rise whenever the difficulties of his life kneel him. The burning fire from inside each cell makes all that is alive a Phoenix bird that helps us to rejuvenate, to always rise, to purify ourselves from mistakes and negative energies. I made this work inspired by a real moment from the area of Baragan. Seeing for the first time the habit of burning the vegetal remains, I was deeply impressed and I immortalizef the moment in an apocalyptic vision, because I was thinking that only a global regenerating fire could eradicate all the diseases of the body and of the soul.”
