Digital sculpted bas relief portrait of Jesus Christ
Bas-Relief Portrait of Jesus Christ

This work is based on a unique sculpture found in my father's workshop.
…Unfortunately, we didn't see each other much in the last years of his life and I don't know the story of his sculpture…
but I have always liked this work and for many years I have intended to recreate it using my skills in digital art and 3D printing …so finally I did it!

The original version of the sculpture was made as a wall bas-relief, so I made an additional option with a stand in the form of palm leaves.

…and I also 3D printed this sculpture in original size (about 15 cm) …but of course, thanks to modern technologies, now I can do it in a wide range of sizes

You may find that in my version I have removed the crown of thorns, which is a common feature of the image of Jesus, a mark of distinction, so to speak.

After all, no one knows exactly what Jesus was like (well, maybe someone does …but I'm sure that most don't)
Usually, artists just make a portrait of a man with long hair and a beard, put a crown of thorns on his head — that’s it, this is Jesus Christ …well you know…

My vision/aspiration was to create a pleasant, bright, already well–known image… but without thorns and crosses…
