Christianity is the dominant religion in Penelope’s country of birth and the nearest culturally, as well as being a milestone for many European cultures. Religion represents our origins and has breathed life into many of the traditions we are rooted in and will always respect. Penelope choses to represent religions in her works in the series of the same name because they are a universal search that gives a way into the spirit of the people quest after archetypes that are common to us all.
Investigating these themes in depth and understanding them shines a light on where differences lie in humanity and where there are points of contact. It expresses a part of the truth of our world. After the macro- and microcosm, there could only be a deepening of the spiritual plane.
Light passes through words and works of art, technology and, with a contemporary appearance, it joins past and present. Padre Nostro (Our Father) has in fact been deliberately written in Latin with Gothic lettering.

This StarGate is part of a more extensive project: a series on world religions. The project, in which various works of different spiritualities and religions are part, wants to show and emphasise the differences contained in an anthropological reflection on the need to answer the human being’s existential questions. Where do we come from? Where did life originate? Where are we going? What exists after death? These questions have existed for as long as humans have, they are architypes of an unconscious that we call “collective” The different answers of different cultures are what defines the character of a religion. The artist dives deep into the world of spirituality looking for points of contact beyond differences without taking a position beyond that of the observer.
