"Walking on Water + Hubble"

6 inch gold frame

Monotype print, oil pastel, and photograph collage

This theme features an excerpt from the famous Hubble Telescope photo* paired with a “Walking on Water” piece**. Born in 1990, I’ve never lived in a time where my faith and understanding of life has not had to stand in awe and grapple with the size of the universe and how much we don’t know. It’s all so beautiful, even in its unknowability.

*In 1990 NASA pointed the Hubble Telescope into the darkest corner of the sky for days, discovering thousands of stars in a spot the size of a grain of sand, forever changing everything we knew about the size of the universe.

**These show some divine gold crowning a tidal wave, since faith journeys rarely feel like walking on smooth glassy water, amirite. The light gold and deep blue reflect a journey with emotional range.
