Higher and Lower

The creation of an image of space is a sort of appropriation of this space. The Byzantine iconoclasts rejected the images to segregate the divine from the materialization. My painting affirms the idea of avoiding the appropriation of the divine, but rather interweaving, inscribing into it. The appropriation of space differs from assimilation by the fact that the latter does not assume the proprietary claims, i.e., the desire to possess, but on the opposite side, it assumes the co-action of the two principles of the divine: inside of the nature and inside of the human.
