Simultaneous

Simultaneous was created from a phototransfer of an image taken of an abandoned looking bridge at the Gethsemane Monastery in Kentucky. The timelessness of the alpha and omega symbolism on the bridge was an intriguing contrast to it's aging, deteriorating, overgrown setting. Threads are stitched along the branches within the image and flow onto the mattboard surrounding it within the frame. It has a companion piece, Eternal, which features a Chi- Rho carved into the other side of the bridge.

This piece was exhibited at Malone University in 2009, at 2nd April galerie's The View From Here show, and in my two-person show entitled Sheer Obscurity, at The Little Art Gallery in North Canton, OH.

Eternal

Eternal was created from an image that I took of a crumbling old bridge while on a hike at the Gethsemane Monastery in Kentucky. I was particularly drawn to the overgrown setting in which it sat, seemingly forgotten. There is a companion piece, Simultaneous, that features the other side of the bridge. A sheer overlay of trees from the Genessee Monastery was integrated to give the dimension of time and space. A Chi- Rho symbol or Christogram is incised into the stone of the bridge. This symbol was used long ago and incorporated the first two Greek letters of Christ's name.
