Blasphemy 1

Film
2022
When I look at religious statues, I often wonder: why do artists always use Circle to represent divinity? The sun, the moon, the stars, atoms and electrons — circles can be found in everything that makes up the universe. Could it be that we see the circle as a symbol of the divine?
In this project, I showcase the circles found in some of the great buildings that are filled with a sense of divinity, and I propose a few hypotheses: Could there also be a divine gaze in the great moments of history? The work also encompasses themes of the sublime, mysticism, etc,.






"I create the circle, I am the circle."
