“Here
, the
artist
blends
elements
of
color
into
shapes
and
forms
to
explore
salvation
and the
terms
under
which
his
winged
and
hooded
figure
,
manipulating
a
marionette
whose
actions
are
predicated
under
the
guise
of
Christianity
,
delivers
it
. His
works
have
caused
sufficient
distress
to be
vandalized
and
censored.”
