Saint Julius | The Work of Julius Shumpert
Howdy! I'm Julius! (@saintjuliusart) Ever since I could remember, I have been obsessed with creating things. I've grown up in the church my whole life, so faith plays a huge role in my creation process.
One thing my work primarily deals with is the spiritual, speaking in large part to the human experience. I'm fascinated by how humanity uses the ability to tell stories, especially religious ones to help better approach the vastness of reality.
The main question I am seeking to answer is: where is the line between the Sacred and the Secular? This question drives me to solving problems creatively and beautifully. I believe as St. Gregory of Nyssa said,
"Beauty... is itself another name for God."
