The mural after DAY 6.
Everyday...patiently...I try to add more and more elements on the canvas. This progression reminds me of how life gets more complicated as the person continues to be ambitious. The more wealth one has the more things one accumulates and the more one tends to become insecure especially on how to safeguard this wealth.
A call from a gallery visitor.
Bro. Robert Reyes and Meneaka. I did a previous project with the running priest as an advocacy against fraternity violence.
Another figure added to the mural.
Art is only a tool by the Almighty God the Father through the artist to spiritually enlighten people but not to serve as a means to practice idolatry and leave people to remain to live in spiritual ignorance. There are a lot of interpretations about a piece of art and it is the artist who knows its real meaning according to how he conceptualized it. Therefore, in the practice of Christianity, the real and in-depth knowledge of the Holy Bible, with the help of the Holy Spirit, directs the believer to the right path. This is in stark contrast to people simply kneeling in front of images made by artists and craftsmen yet are spiritually ignorant themselves about what really pleases the Almighty God the Father.
Real Christian spiritual enlightenment based on the Holy Bible and guided by the Holy Spirit enables and emboldens a person to face the real world that is full of confusion, full of problems and obstacles as confusing as what this mural tries to depict.

This marker here in Hong Kong honoring Dr. Jose Rizal comes to mind each and every June when the Filipino community celebrates its independence.
But what is real freedom?
