OVERVIEW
The Radiant Light wall piece has two perspectives. When looked at from the side it only appears to have rows of walls and chambers. These represent obstacles within our society which an individual may be faced with or impacted by. These include violence, hatred, theft, love of money, drugs, alcohol, lust, pornography, pre-marital sex, divorce, etc.. As a person begins to break free of these things their perspective of life and the surrounding world begins to change. This is represented by moving from the side of the art piece towards the center, realizing the cross which begins to take shape.
Looking at the art piece from a front view represents a person’s realization of God’s existence and the acceptance of this greater power into their life. The rays emerging from the cross represent God’s power and authority over everything in existence so that with him we can overcome all obstacles and struggles. This demonstrates my personal journey in life as I went from atheism to becoming a Christ follower at the age of 24. Since then I have been taking all necessary steps and overcoming life’s obstacles to gain a clear vision of what God expects of me as his follower. It’s a challenging journey but, since that day my rewards have been quite astonishing.

I’ve found your great projects through jalopnik.com today and i’m also a christian (found that because of “Colossians 3:23-24″ in the end of the Bugatti video!) and i live in Rio,Brazil. I like these papercrafts, especially the car ones but they take a lot of work and hability and time so i failed haha
But keep up the good work, your habilities are amazing, God bless you!
Thank you for stopping by. Greetings out to Brazil from Seattle. God bless you too my friend.
In Genesis we learn that God is creative and He breathed His creative spirit into us. Later in we learn though the prophets God used drama to tell His message. Our God is a creative God and we as his creation are creative too. It is so cool to see how God has blessed you with this Skill and that you use it for His Glory.

Thank you Shane. I think about what you said time, looking at the world around me, it amazes me how amazing God must be to create everything that exists. It’s the ultimate source of inspirations. This is even more powerful to me, being a former Atheist.
