Jonah

This striking piece reinterprets the biblical story of Jonah and the whale through the aesthetic lens of a Japanese woodblock print. The artwork features Jonah in a small boat, facing the immense whale that is about to engulf him, set against a backdrop of tumultuous waves and a vivid orange sun. The use of monochrome tones with splashes of orange lends a dramatic and timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the themes of nature’s power and human vulnerability. The traditional Japanese art style adds a layer of cross-cultural reverence to this ancient narrative, highlighting the universal nature of the story across different cultures and epochs.
