AFTERLIFE
Gouache

The Christ figure is a direct copy from Salvadore Dali's St. John's vision of Christ on the cross' but painted in blue tones.

I noticed that the shape of the crucified body resembles the shape of a uterus which instantly brings together the ideas of life, death and rebirth or being born again.

The blood of Christ becomes menstral blood, and the new dawn on the horizon echoes the theme of cycles.
