Fire and Life

Marc’s winning International Muralfest entry in 2009. The mural depicts ‘The creation of Adam’ , from Michelangelo’s  Sistine Chapel, which alludes to the very spark of life.  Beyond this, nature plants her random quantum seed due to the sudden surge of molten lava.

 

The concept is fortified (and the illusion heightened) with the installation of modern safety cones and barrier tape. Consequently, this would also cause considerable frustration for small children racing over to pull the plastic ribbon to bits.
