Tarxien Goddess (oil, 1994) |
|||||||||||||||||
|
Tarxien is a seamless and beautiful temple and is younger than Ggigantija. The golden stones are carved and fit perfectly. Inside the entrance stands a broken statue of the gigantic, corpulent Goddess. Here I have envisioned how she might have looked once. Everywhere are beautiful carvings of spirals, plants and animals. We were there at sunrise once and here is a Maltese friend meditating at that hour. |
