Virgin Mary
Giclée print on Hahnemühle Photo Rag®
“The Virgin Mary” is a dense, layered digital print depicting Christ’s mother as popularized by the Immaculate Heart images. Using imagery lifted from Jehovah Witness publications, Awake! And The Watchtower, the artwork explores the inherent conflicting ideals and aesthetics of religious belief. These marketing materials show “Eden” as suburban and attainable, with pastel beaches, abundant fruit and tempered desire, you need only join the faithful to reach salvation. Underlying these idyllic images is a great ambivalence towards those outside the strictures of belief, and a reminder that these beliefs are fortified through the secular structures of nations and their currency.
