lots of deep meaning in this one. Nearly impossible to explain tho, so i'll leave it without a title, altho several have come to mind.
made this for a course i'm in at school, where we've been studying religious themes in art, and were asked to create one photo/painting/drawing which in some way relates to the bible (or in my case) in some way expresses our feelings about christianity/religion in general. (my feelings about this subject are complicated, needless to say) anyway, the pictures will be displayed for about one month in Hallgrímskirkja (the church that seemingly all tourists who come to iceland visit at some point) , starting may 10th. This looks way better in print btw. i recommend checking out this little exhibition.
this image had been in my head for months, and when i stopped to think about it, i found it perfect for this assignment (but nearly impossible to put into words why)
and this isn't as photoshopped as it may appear, i painted myself white, hair and skin, and the branch is held by my teeth alone. yummy.
