About this artwork
Religion is under attack like never before, even from within. This painting was completed after seeing a documentary on the Roman catholic church and insider testimony by a former priest. I think that the symbolism and iconography of religion and the reality of it are completely different.
The iconic features of all religions have a purity and belief resonating from them that is not necessarily reflected by the way religions operate themselves.

« Our world is tearing itself apart environmentally, socially, and economically. It is my job to highlight the faults as I see them. I disguise dark themes with color and rhythmical lines. »
Marc Rayner is an Australian artist based in Sweden who has exhibited his works nationally, as well as in Sweden, Monaco, France, Qatar, Italy, India, South Korea, Denmark, and Japan. The key to his artworks is the creation of 'quasi-landscapes' rich in text and design, or flat and almost devoid of information. This 'distorted zone' is a place where Rayner's tormented, disenfranchised, and often unfortunate characters exist. He is drawn to outsider artistic styles and naive art in broader terms.
