A note from the artist:
This painting is partially inspired by various artists' depictions of the Biblical story of the angel Lucifer falling from heaven.
Growing up in the Church, it always struck me how this depiction of the angel Lucifer was essentially a mirror image of various Catholic depictions of Christ on his cross.
It got me thinking, allegorically and artistically, naturally. ;)
In our modern culture, who are our Heroes? Who are our Villains? And what, really, separates them?
Is it as simple as a mirror image flip? A different point of view?
I love playing with my Hero character inside of these ancient depictions of Heroism. I love that he feels so fun and colorful, but so deeply symbolic at the same time.
When you hang "Hero Falls" in your home, I hope it brings a sense of this delicate balance - and reminds you that art is always asking us to look just a bit deeper at what we so often encounter in our daily lives.
May we always choose to be the Hero.
