Well, as you can see this is a sneak peak of my first set of canvases. I will be creating something similar to "Altar-Piece" where one painting is in front and when you open it up, the second painting is revealed. I am really excited and especially glad that I have started. The concept I am bringing on the first section represents the Two Kingdoms and the second section represents Law/Gospel. This will be called a Reformation Recall!: The media of the Reformation and the Reformation of the Media show. The side designs to this piece will be pamphlets and business cards (Again a symbol of Gutenberg's timely invention) and a poster also advertising the show.
Those of you who have followed my artwork know it will be very Abstract, so really the second section will be the toughest Law/Gospel. The goal is to capture what Luther has said in the past and dialoguing about whether it is relevant for us in our context. In my conversations with my advisor here in Marburg, he brought up that we are living actually in a multi-kingdom world and that Luther's Two Kingdom Dotrine may not apply in our context today. I would like to systematically/visually respond to that evaluation.
Some words that I am throwing around right now are:
Two kingdoms but one world
Two hands but one being
The freedom to good and the freedom to evil is within our grasps
Peace, and have a Great Day!=)
