St. Francis in Ecstasy
Inspired by Giovanni Bellini's 15th-century Italian Renaissance masterpiece, “Saint Francis in the Desert,” located in the Frick Collection, this painting explores themes of the ineffable nature of existence. St. Francis, in this instance, is symbolically represented by the unbleached titanium-colored structure in the foreground. Originating in the ambiguity of existence, and drenched in a luminous crimson-pink sky, its title suggests the ecstasy found within the experience of hovering in the standstill of a transcendental realm.
