Resurrection

Taking the story on from the Easter legend of Christ's resurrection, this one tries to explore the phenomenonology behind it... What it means to restart an engine that has evidently packed up... what it means to conjure life back into a body that has begun its return to the elements. This one's a sort of spectroscopy of resurrection. That's why there is an excess of 'happy' colours and 'solar' colours as much of our life on Earth revolves around the sun (pun unavoidable!) starting with our quotidian functions that get started at day break to the grand greening of the planet through photosynthesis.
