Limited edition of 250 copies including a signed and numbered original photograph. #087 "Spirituality is often extraneous to our everyday life, almost an attitude unfamiliar to our way of life and our relationship to others. At a time of the year, however, spirituality manifests itself clearly and appears to our eyes with small signs, with a theatricality sometimes poor, even kitch, but often dense with meaning. This represantation is touching for its apparent simplicity and for the direct and expicit way of telling us its belonging to a non-ephemeral tradition which can be profound and mirror of an inner need to manifest itself. Sometimes the signs are hidden, and they have to be discovered, searched for, they have to show themselves where we are not axpecting them. They appear in a landscaspe that is famliar to us as an extraneous object whose manifestation is legitimate only for a short period of time during which it becomes part of our life. It's ... of course ... Christmas time." Show more
