Part of my series 'Future Iconography', this paradoxical work is the largest. Stark yet vivid, it looks towards the past, yet envisages a hopeful future. With a symbol of intuitive vision at its core, it presents a mindful and timeless glance towards our history. It looks towards the future and the potential for a world shaped by values of wisdom rather than dogma. The lens at its core of its being propels us into utopian future. A future icon that appears flat, yet reveals depth upon closer inspection. From it emanates dynamic energy. The boundaries of its futuristic lines are filled with metallic colours, conveying the otherworldly spiritual stillness of religious icons.
