Transcendence - Triptych 2
Gorilla's Parable
In this captivating triptych, inspired by Louis de Caullery's painting "Christ and the Two Thieves at Golgotha," a dancer concealed behind a gorilla mask narrates a journey of transformation and redemption. The gorilla mask represents societal pressures and racial roles, serving as a metaphor for the masks we all wear. In the first panel, embodying Saint Dismas, the dancer signifies the potential for growth and redemption, breaking free from societal expectations. The central panel, with the dancer as Christ, transcends racial imagery and emphasizes universal sacrifice and spiritual growth. The final panel, as the rebel thief, symbolizes defiance and resilience against predefined roles. "Gorilla's Parable" invites contemplation of identity, societal constraints, and the enduring nature of racial bias within the context of the gorilla mask's symbolism.

Unfortunately we are unable to make any customizations at this time.

All of our frames are made from wood and hand assembled for each piece.

Each of our frames comes ready to hang with wall buddies that make for easy hanging. Depending on your wall we recommend using screws for our smaller sizes and an anchor for our two largest sizes.
Are Any Of Your Prints Signed Or Numbered?
On occasion we release signed and numbered editions that often sell out immediately. The best way to stay informed is by signing up for our newsletter.
Are Your Prints Glossy Or Matte In Finish?
All of our artworks are printed on a moderate 300gsm bright white matte archival 100% cotton rag paper.
Do You Use Glass Or Acrylic For Your Framed Art?
We use a thick sheet of UV blocking acrylic for all of our fine art prints. Despite being more expensive than glass, we’ve chosen to frame with acrylic because it offers superior protection and is less likely to arrive damaged in transit.
