Meditation Altarpiece (12 Levels) Photograph

The artwork will be exhibited at Art International Zurich and is therefore temporarily unsaleable until mid-October. Today, many people have a place to meditate at home. This picture is the ideal altarpiece for the meditation corner. It incorporates the Zen tradition of the 10 Ox Images and the Christian mystical tradition of the Ladder of St. John of the Cross. Fru has reinterpreted the 10 images of the Ox story and the ten steps of John of the Cross. The images are intended to encourage the viewer to reflect on his or her own life. Together with the model Sonja, Fru recreated 12 situations in a body painting performance and photographed and filmed them. The photographs are edited in Photoshop to the point that only the painting is visible. For more information on the creation see the making of video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HTY7SKZvDc For inspiration and the artistic genre see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Bulls https://prodigalcatholic.com/the-mystic-ladder-of-divine-love-by-st-john-of-the-cross/ The whole series of 12 pictures with a commentary are published in a book: https://www.epubli.com/shop/12-levels-haiku-zenga-photo-9783752970012 Body art (Bodypainting) is an artistic concept of the 20th century in which the body is both an art medium and an art object. It is a fluid transition between art and life. Life is a work of art, and the work of art is life. When you realise this, you feel happy. Models: fru.ch and Sonja. Environment, styling, body painting, photography and digital post-processing were done entirely by the artist and the frame with canvas, wood and aluminium pole too. The original is a fine art print with LUCIA pigment ink on canvas and is signed by artist.
