Video Icon is an artistic endeavour designed to cater to the spiritual needs of a society in which Christians practice yoga and worship football players and actors on par with the eternal icons. This is a prototype of the future icon, an object of worship for those who seek answers to their questions not in churches or temples, but in the midst of a collective aesthetic experience: in cinemas, museums, or sport arenas.

The word, a fundamental category for Christianity, is absent in the Video Icon realm. Instead, the sacral rite is spurred on by the sensually stimulating and easily approachable music and light, as well as religious symbols which allow countless interpretations.

Signs venerated for millennia merge into a single image alluding to a cult displaced from the collective memory of nations. The ancient god raised from his slumber in the modern world points to the common source of the universal religions and perpetuity of the very search for a supreme being.

A very spot-on artistic work in form and substance, Video Icon aims to preserve the memory of the tradition and reveal the ‘visible truth’ — an image of the ungraspable. The creative act resuscitates the archaic past that transpires in the present and aims to go on living forever.
