Thank you Ariel;

And I’m quite willing to “unpackage” it, though part of the beauty of art is its mystery:

There are three synonymous ideas here: the stone, wings, and the esoteric arche (which is Greek for “essential material” or basic stuff; the fundamental core). All of these ideas came to me from the Psalms and are all references to the Divine (”shadow of his wings,” “rock on which I stand,” and finally, the rough-hewn cross, which is the foundation of the very world).

The first half is about my tendency towards self-deification; the frenetic self-centredness of my anxious heart.

And there is only one thing that can lead me out of this cycle of despair…

Circle;
