This painting is an 8 color silk screen print on hand made paper. In this image you can see, a building and it looks like a church. There's a women in the mid ground, she looks like she painting the church shes looks like a giant in the image. There also figures of people around the church. There's different patterns on the roof of the church and there's like a colorful beehive pattern behind the women. There's also pattern in the fore ground.
The church looks like is going through a renovation. It seems like the people in the painting went through something that effected their life's and their trying to rebuild. The lady face describes different emotion. She looks pissed off but also very calm. The place in the painting looks like is from a certain country, the way that the people are rebuilding the church is by had they are not using any machines or anything technical things, so it must be in a unfortunate country, a country with not much but with hard working people.
The fact that it shows that their rebuilding a church makes me think about their religion. These people must be really religious and are committed to it. It also make me think about the painting spiritually, I think they are also trying to rebuild their belief after all the trouble they've been through. I think this painting speaks in two different ways. One is that, it speaks about rebuilding physically as a person. Two I believe in a spiritual world, and I do believe in God and I have experienced a moment in my life that I fully questioned my belief and spiritually I collapsed , but I managed to rebuild which, is something that this painting reminded me. Over all this painting is an encouragement for me and maybe to other people.
Nice critique Grace!
