Egg tempera and gold leaf on oak Each panel 16cm x 55cm x 1cm This work re-visits a subject which I have treated a number of times, and is a minimal representation of part of the Noah's Ark story. The tiny dove flies back over huge tracts of sky and empty land to the still swelling flood water, carrying an olive branch in its beak. It symbolises the survival of hope in the midst of desolation and against enormous odds and is a response to the coronavirus pandemic. |
