Description:
This effigy symbolises the power of music and the importance of it in most peoples lives. Music is available in many different medias but vinyl was the media of my youth and throughout my adolescence I continued to choose this over the more modern options emerging.
The Crucifix is a powerful symbol recognised around the world and the Bible is one of the most printed books of all time, so I have used these to express my emotions concerning music.
People pay homage to all different religions and gods, I am using unwanted vinyl records to pay homage to music as the religion of my life.
