Saint Sebastians
and the Pachamama
a series of 4 paintings weaving the Golden legends and new age paganism
Four paintings reimagine Saint Sebastian as a Pachamama martyr, reclaiming Christian sainthood through a re-paganized lens. Set within 18th- and 19th-century frames, these works tell four distinct stories in which Saint Sebastian is martyred by Humankind. In one, he is crowned by Pachamama; in another, his martyrdom unfolds while two oblivious hikers nap nearby.
The laws of nature, much like monotheistic gods, are immaterial beings—everywhere and nowhere at once. This series weaves a new Golden Legend for a planet in peril, a visual ode to an endangered world.
