The Crucifix

The Crucifix or Self portrait.

This self portrait was created during a very critical point in my life. It was a way of reacting.

Most of the time we allow to be crucified in the sense that we live our lives first for others and maybe for ourselves. At a certain point you cry for help. And help does come. But to make use of this help you have to come down from the cross.

The first thing I did after freeing my hands is to throw away the crown of thorns which is a title given to me by others. It is fundamental to free oneself mentally and gain psychological well being.

From the blood the on the earth a plant sprouts.

This work is in a private collection in San Floriano, Italy

The technique is pointillism.
