I drew a partial picture of a Salvador Dali painting. At this point, I tried so many crucifixions with our Lord. None of them would work well. And.. .1 was worried that things would not come out right. This feeling was always there anytime I tried.
Then I was able to go to the library on my 1st release from TDC (Texas Department of Corrections)
It was in Austin, Texas. When I saw this (Salvador Dali), I was drawn to it immediately. I drew.. .1 drew, and I drew some more. Getting it right was very important to me. The reason? As mentioned, I did not feel right for whatever reason.
Over the last 20 years, when I was able to get to a printer via Office Depot, I made some copies. The copies never did come out the way that I drew them, it seems.
This, along with a couple of copies, survived.
Salvador Dali's "Corpus Hypercube" is a nontraditional, surrealist portrayal of the Crucifixion; it depicts Christ on a polyhedron net of a tesseract (hypercube).
It is one of his best-known paintings from the later part of his career.
It is a 1954 oil-on-canvas painting.
It communicates the idea that though one can discuss the necessity of Jesus' sacrifice for salvation, one can also study.
If you see his original, you will notice that at the bottom of his painting, there is a checkerboard field with a Saint looking up at Him. I could not capture the whole painting; I could only capture part of it.
