Here, each figure represents the seven stages of creation, “with the infant representing the day of rest,” capturing the “majesty and grandeur of the Creation in an alternative way,” said Gloschat.

I believe that as we create, we become more aware of our divine potential and have the opportunity to glimpse God’s power.”
