Un Milione di Volti di Gesù - Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“One Million Faces of Jesus - Painting by Dino Carbetta” …
In Daniel 10:5-6, a vivid portrayal unfolds: "As I looked up, I saw a man dressed in linen with a belt of fine gold around his waist. His body was like chrysolite, his face shone like lightning, his eyes were like fiery torches, his arms and feet looked like burnished bronze, and the sound of his voice was like the roar of a multitude." This biblical imagery resonates with the timeless truth found in Genesis 1:27, reminding us that "God created mankind in his image; in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." These verses, like brushstrokes on the canvas of my artistic journey, have fueled my fascination with the countenance of Christ since early childhood. Since I was young, I have been exploring art and expressing my creativity through sketches, drawings, and photographs. Blessed with humble artistic skills, the culmination of three years of introspection has birthed my current interpretation, a visual metamorphosis of the face of Christ. The blessed gaze upon Him face to face, a vision described as immediate, direct, and surpassingly clear and distinct. It transcends the limitations of our earthly perception, offering a glimpse into the divine reality. As the apostle Paul eloquently expresses in 1 Corinthians 13:12, "At present, we are looking at a confused reflection in a mirror; then, we shall see face to face; now, I have only glimpses of knowledge; then, I shall recognize God as he has recognized me." This verse encapsulates the profound journey of seeking clarity and revelation, a journey echoed in my artistic pursuit to capture the essence of the divine appearance. Just as the biblical verses guide us toward a profound encounter, may this artwork beckon viewers to recognize God with a depth that surpasses mere glimpses of knowledge—a recognition that resonates with the profound truth of divine revelation.
