Deity IX

Antique Bible pages, wax, doll form & fire, 17” x 12” (Figure), Private Collection

A representation of those who literally bury themselves underneath the dogma of religion, yet act in ways that are an affront to the religion they claim to believe in. Hypocrisy at work. This deity is photographed in front of a gilded frame and standing on pages of a 19th-century journal.
