Crucifixion and the Cross (2020) is part of a new series of paintings that focus specifically on corners. All were created during the outbreak of Covid-19 and the intense period of isolation, and self-introspection, that ensued. The  series is based almost exclusively on the premise that duality is a fact of human nature: as Jung said, "Every good quality has its bad side, and nothing that is good can come into the world without directly producing a corresponding evil. This is a painful fact."

The title of the work is directly inspired by another Jungian quote, "…a crucifixion of the ego, its agonizing suspension between irreconcilable opposites." It is these irreconcilable opposites specifically that the work is addressing, the ego and the malevolent part of the psyche, the shadow.
