"Call Me Judas" is a striking and evocative piece crafted with charcoal, ink, and gold leaf on paper. The artwork features a meticulously rendered skull, showcasing precise detailing and dramatic contrasts. Set against a radiant gold leaf halo, the skull juxtaposes classical iconography with contemporary themes. The halo, reminiscent of religious motifs, highlights the stark, skeletal visage, inviting viewers to ponder themes of mortality, betrayal, and sanctity. A subtle cross inscribed on the skull's forehead adds depth, suggesting a complex narrative of redemption and loss. This piece challenges the observer to reflect on the duality of human nature and the fine line between reverence and condemnation.
