About the Item
Artist Comments
This painting is a meditative response towards Shusaku Endo's masterpiece,Silence. Now a film made by Martin Scorsese, Silence is a story expressing wrestling questions on faith, doubt, certainty, and the meaning of God's silence in suffering. This painting deals with the paradoxes of faith and doubt;finding beauty in the silence, and illuminating hope in the midst of exile. This piece is on gallery wrapped canvas with painted white edges. It comes wired to hang.

- Untitled - Current, Abstract Oil PaintingBy Wes SumrallLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
I took a six month hiatus from painting to have personal refection. I planned to go as far as the end of the year, but after the tragic events in Charlottesville, I knew I had to return to the process. This painting is the first piece from the hiatus. My works endeavor to further my pursuits to embody the paradox of doubt, mourning, delight, and beauty.About the Artist
