This story shows up again and again in my work.

Someone said I must be highly religious because I sometimes use Biblical themes in my artwork. The truth is, the Bible stories I use are always those I can't understand. Lot and his wife, Noah and the Ark, The Three Kings with their age inappropriate gifts (thanks Hannah Gadsby), the baby in the bullrushes, or Jacob Wrestling with the Angel, and so on.

Perhaps I hope reworking them will help me understand but so far I remain mystified.
