Cherub - acrylic on glass

Ezekiel had a vision of a new temple. The cherubim on the walls of the temple are unlike others described in scripture.

Each cherub had two faces: the face of a man toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other. They were carved all around the whole temple. (Ezekiel 41:18-19)

I wanted to meditate on this particular cherub as a representation of our physical body and spirit man dwelling together. It also represents Jesus as the Son of God and the Son of Man. Many people see a map in this image. This is unintentional, but an acceptable interpretation in view of the repeated themes in my work (gates, doors, conduits, etc.).
