at the 2014 Carmelite Institute Art Show
- Reimagining St. Theresa in Art,
Virginia Theological Seminary, Alexandria, VA!
$250.00 (18" diameter)
Re-imagining
St. Theresa's Fiat in light of her ecstasies; transposing Bernini's
arrow into she lovingly receiving her feather quill as it pierces her
heart and sparks her passions. His love and inspiration pours
into her as sparkling light through the Holy Spirit as she looks on
adoringly. To her left is a darkness, representing her struggles with
her own long, dark night accented with slivers of hope. Above her are
scrolls representing her many penned works and treatises of the
Baroque Catholic Reformation era, blessed by our Father in Heaven,
transforming her into a Doctor of the Church.
