Description
The First Fish. but the stock is still persecuted. This work started because of a T.V. show that said the seas were over fished and polluted by man-kind. So the Artist thought “fish crucified” when the work began it took a life of it’’s own. In Christianity life truly began with Jesus being ‘ sold’ for 30 pieces of silver (seen falling from it’’s mouth) the coins also represent the 12 tribes. The cross represents Rome. Fish keep life sustained. Jesus words sustain humanity. The nets harvest fish. Jesus made his disciples ”the fishers of men” The Net represents also 'him' being denied 3 times. The blue background is representing the ”womb” the powerful story of the conception and birth.The light into the world and the sun disc represents the ”Son of the Father” A fish was the first symbol used by the early Christians. The Artist has found meditating on this work opens up the emotions and sense of purpose. Acrylic on canvas. Brush. 50cm x 60cm
