TIMORATI DI DIO

A meditation on the relationship between fear and faith.

The dialogue of fear and faith is the ultimate duality of experience. They exist at the same time responding to the same stimulus creating the lens in which we see the world through. They shape our inner and outer world, frame our perspectives and inform the beliefs we have about ourselves, about others and about love.

Fear is reactive faith is responsive. Just as these icons depicted fear and suffering hundreds of year since in contemporary society the same ideology is present. Fear pervades culture. Faiths the seed that births the antidote to fear.
