Calypso

This oil on canvas 40x30 presents a profound spiritual narrative centered on Christ's resurrection and divine revelation. The title "Calypso"—meaning concealed or hidden—mirrors the mystery of Christ's initial unrecognizability to His followers after His resurrection. The composition draws from Scripture's account of Mary Magdalene and Cleopas, whose astonishment transforms into recognition and devotion as Christ makes Himself known. Their emotional response—"Were our hearts not burning within us while He talked?"—captures the transformative power of encountering the divine. This work invites viewers to contemplate their own potential for spiritual awakening and personal revelation. References: John 20:16, Luke 24:32.
