Although deeply influenced by the secular traditions of modernity that have rejected the Bible's authority, Martinez Celaya's work also embodies a sustained critique of these traditions. This exhibition will explore the consequences of the struggle between the mystical and the moral in a series of works that embody the artist's concern for the cultural authority of the Bible to give voice to human aspirations and wonder at the mystery of being, including art, philosophy and science in a post-Biblical world.
