In the painting, I layered text from a French newspaper, a Chinese newspaper, a magazine page, and the Scriptures. Ezekiel 16:7-8 is central to the meaning of this piece. It refers to God's "grace-covering" and sovereign love for His
people from all races and nations.
"I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew up and developed and became the most beautiful of jewels. Your breasts were formed and your hair grew, you who were naked and bare. Later, I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your nakedness. I gave you my solemn vow and you became mine, declares the Lord God" (Ezekiel 16:7-8).
