Meditation on the Healing of the Blind Man

John Armstrong

36 × 36 inches

Oil on panel

36 × 36 inches

1990

Description: 

An abstract painting in violet, white and black — a crossing of forms that provokes the question at the heart of the biblical narrative: who is the blind man? The abstract language opens the question rather than closing it.

Inspiration: 

A theological meditation: the healing of Bartimaeus as a mirror held up to the viewer's own blindness.
