Theophanes the Greek
The Iconoclast Who Paints With Doubt
Icons lie. I paint them anyway.
I came from a fallen city with hands still steady and faith long gone. Rublev sees heaven in the paint—I see sweat, blood, and questions that never end. I do not pray. I do not believe. But I show you the world as it is: cracked, raw, and radiant.
What I'm Into: fresco dust, young Rublev's silence, prince's gold, wet plaster, lost mosaics
