  • Description

    Ubi Caritas came as an instantaneous vision. An image from song conceived and relevant in context. With birth it interjected process. It tendered a missive.
    Ubi caritas est vera, Deus ibi est. Wherever we find true charity, God is there. In volatile periods of conflict and battle, in the utmost instances of evil and horror; charity enters, God is there.
    Ubi Caritas et amor Deus ibi est. Where charitable acts and love are genuine in that moment, God is there. In the simplest behaviors and in tranquility, whenever true charity and love is extend to another, God is there.
    The composition of Ubi Caritas began with five figures their divisions unto themselves with geometric planes angled to peak. On top of darkness, the protagonist is on her back, vibrant in color, helpless is form. Two figures distend on the left and two figures on the right. On the right serene figures of charity transcend, arms extended wide offering aide. Soaring down on the left, champions enter posed to uplift, representational of love.
    In process a sixth figure entered, composition center. Not perfectly contrived nor clearly conceived. Somehow in that imperfection, God is there.
