Artist Statement

A spiritual infant (us human beings) just won a spiritual battle against a greater foe (evil of this world) not because our capabilities, but by the grace of God up on us. and we proceeded to crawl towards God and away from evil.

How it fits into contest

My art work metaphorically depicts a spiritual battle between us humans and the evil that lurks in this world.
I used an infant to represent all of us humans in order to show our weakness and incapabilities as humans. But when we equipped with the full armor of God, all is possible despite our infant like short commings and we would have the ability to face against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Credits

My inspiration to create this art work arose from my curiosity to find and understand God.
