This work explores light as a mystical and symbolic force, where refraction dissolves form into a dreamlike field of illumination.
Within this shifting radiance, the figure of the Messiah becomes abstracted—not depicted, but dispersed—emerging as a pulse of transcendence rather than a body. The layered bands of light behave like veils, rituals, or thresholds, evoking the aesthetics of mysticism while destabilizing the line between vision and revelation. Through this symbolic refraction, the image transforms into an apparition, suggesting a presence felt rather than seen—an unfolding of the Messianic beyond representation.
