Gold printing with Sandblasting with the Holy Resurrection
An amazing gold print with the representation of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, a theme filled with strong symbolism.
Jesus Christ can be seen in the center of the image, wrapped in white light, while underneath a dark abyss emerges, that is, Christ is presented as the only victor over death.
“And rise again on the third day according to the Scriptures,” the Creed says of Christ’s triumphant resurrection from the dead. The Resurrection of Jesus symbolizes the passage from death to life, while at the same time through the Resurrection Life and Death acquire another meaning.
