Description:
A mysterious figure dressed in black, strolls through a pasture. Upon passing a large orthodox cross, hewn in marble, she is inexplicably pulled in reverse, arms outstretched in cruciform position and lifted from the ground. More than the spell or the grip of religion, this is Christianity come again as a tractor beam. Forever the prankster, the artist placed a subliminal message in the title à la Led Zeppelin, exploiting the stereotype of the region as deeply superstitious. (Hamza Walker)
