Sons of Light 4 - The Cosmic Christ
29 January 1982, A 4, liquid glazing paint on paper
This painting shows the white figure of Christ in a blessing position. He emerges from the flames of the surrounding fiery aura. And there is an aura of white light surrounding his upper half, from where the form of the cross appears. It is not a position of suffering on the cross, but of the cross of matter transformed into the light structure of the horizontal and vertical dimensions of material incarnation. You might compare it to the painting of the Birth of Christ - The Logos, reminding of the sacrifice of the Cosmic Man, Purusha, to manifest the planes of creation.
There is no face, no structure of the body; it is just light, like the light of the background, having gained form through the circumscribing outlines.
