‘GOD IS IN THE DETAIL’ – Stephanie Sandercock.

120 cm x 120 cm acrylic & gold leaf on wooden panel.

Painting of a sound wave from a recording of the saying “God is in the detail”.

 

DESCRIPTION

There is a crack in between the black and white, where grey delivers a space for hope, unity and understanding.

Within the grey area, seven coloured threads of cotton weave through the sound wave to represent the meanings behind our words.

Our communication, like colourful threads vibrate out into the universe. There is gold in the black and the white and the grey. There is gold inside us all.

 

God is… In The Detail

“ In the beginning was the word

And the word was with God

And the word was God “

 

Our thoughts and words are creative

The painting shows a sound wave of the spoken words –

“ God is in the detail ”

 

We live in a world of duality

Up, down

Yes, no

Black, white

Wrong and right

Past and future

 

But right here and now

We are being given the present

 

It looks black and white

Then you notice the grey

The gap in between

Where creation sparks

A crack of hope

Space for understanding

Unity

 

God is… in the detail

There’s a rainbow in the grey

Colourful threads weaving their way

And there is gold in the day

And gold in the night

Gold in the black

And gold in the white

 

We are all in the being

And we are being in the all

In the is-ness of everything

Great and small

 

God is the yes

And the no

And the maybe

 

God is… everything

Not the absence of anything

But the inclusion of all

 

Near and far

Within us, outside of us

Anything and everything

The always, evermore
