…when the Lord would take up Elijah by a whirlwind into heaven…from Gilgal
Kings II 2:1
Size: 1.60m x 1.20m (63in x 47in)
This tapestry depicts the Prophet Elijah’s ascension to the sky, in a whirlwind, from the land of Gilgal. The design is quite simple and figurative. There are abstract masses of colors that lean one into the other, detaching themselves by means of light and shadow; sometimes they are subtle, like the sky, other times very provocative, like the mass of ground. The character, which is flying or levitating, exhibits the same energy as the representation of the ground below.
