Artwork description

Calvary reimagines the crucifixion through bold abstraction and vibrant color. The figure stretches across the canvas, fragmented into shards of blue, red, and yellow, as if torn between material suffering and spiritual transcendence. The familiar pose of outstretched arms anchors the composition, yet the body dissolves into shifting planes, refusing to be contained.

The background pulses with contrasting warmth and coolness, echoing the dualities of pain and hope, mortality and eternity. Angular strokes break apart the sacred scene, suggesting both destruction and reconstruction. This fractured energy gives the work an immediacy that feels both violent and luminous.

More than a depiction of sacrifice, the painting becomes a meditation on the human condition. Through its abstraction, it strips away narrative detail, leaving only essence—anguish and resilience. The crucifixion is not distant history here, but an ever-present struggle, rendered in color and form as a timeless, universal symbol of endurance.
