This print captures the power and complexity of the original mixed-media painting, translating its raw energy and layered symbolism into a richly detailed printed form.
At the centre stands a stylized figure framed by a glowing halo — echoing the visual language of saints or Christ-like icons. The fragmented face and blurred gestures retain their expressive tension, with the print revealing every ridge and scrape of the original paint. The absence of clear eyes and features evokes themes of blindness, sacrifice, and transcendence.
The vibrant fields of pink, blue, and red remain visceral and alive, their textures flattened yet visually preserved — a reminder of the painting’s physical origins in thick impasto and found material. The glowing red aura behind the head radiates through the composition, hinting at both divinity and dissonance against the raw, wooden background.
In this print, the dialogue between faith and fracture persists. The sacred is filtered through a contemporary lens — questioning, self-aware, and imperfect. Though the material weight of paint is transformed into ink and surface, the spirit of the work endures: an exploration of belief, identity, and the beauty of what remains.
