DESCRIPTION
|
|
This work is a documentation of my search for spiritual truth,
inspired by places of thoughtful reflection and solitude such as the
Rothko Chapel and the grand cathedrals in Europe. The space promotes
a feeling of isolation in front of something overwhelming, and the
glorification of the people in our lives who influence our moral
values and interpretation of God.
This is a private space where I look deep into myself, seeking answers
to questions I gave up asking long ago-- for a persons spiritual journey
is intensely personal despite attempts to package and mass market it.
Everyone struggles with the meaning of faith and the existence of God; this is a glimpse at my exploration.
