‘Icon, Instead of Venerating a Holy Person’, pays homage to the earliest religion known to humanity the worship of the earthmother a goddess symbolizing fertility and the source of life.
Icon imagery of the seed plays on the female form and fertility, the reproductive function that without we would not exist.
It is about the holy veneration of nature and the respect we should bestow upon it.
