Description
Summary:Like the visual design of an emblem, images of heat and cold in the Theoremes form unusual compositions of objects and/or persons interrelated allegorically, situated in "mysterious" abstract space and then accompanied by their interpretation and/or moral application. The central figure of the Theoremes is seen as Jesus as a force exerted by heat. When His physical presence is felt or sought, spiritual strength and fidelity are present as emblems of heat. When His presence is ignored or shunned, carnal weakness, fear, and infidelity are present as the message of emblems of cold.
