A clean heart create for me, God; renew in me a steadfast spirit. -Psalm 51:12
Appropriating Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio’s painting of “David with the head of Goliath,” I made a cut-out of a heart in flames to show the purity of heart that the young David possesses that made him king. This same purity of heart he petitions God for the offences that he made, and a steadfast spirit that would not be tainted by human pride. It is true that power corrupts but a heart that in its right place will always endure.
