Jesus Christ the Bridegroom of the Church, egg tempera on cardboard, 1993.

Sometimes I paint some of my works using the left hand, bringing to the forefront its clumsiness. Thus, due to the weakness of my left hand, the letters are awkwardly written and the icon is limited by a simpler palette of colors. This is one of the ways for an iconographer to “externalize” something other, different, and new. This something comes into being as a result of a greater effort, and not as a result of skill and routine.
