Christmas crib' 2012


In this video, we see the Dove with a Olive twig in its beak, sitting on the stump of a tree. The Dove represents the Holy Spirit-Spirit of Peace. Christ was born by the power of the Holy Spirit. In Him is the new creation- just as new creation began with Noah. The stump of the tree is the " root of Jessé "- the chosen stock. Christ was born in the lineage of King David.
The fullness of Spirit is in Him. That's the reason, I have shown the Birth of Jesus Christ in the body of the Holy Spirit. The outstretched wings of the Dove symbolizes His gift of Holy Spirit to all who believe in Him. He welcomes all those who are weary and overburdened. He gathers them all, as the bird gathers it's brood under it's wings. The Green star is the star of Peace- Jesus Christ is the King of Peace. Although the bark is dried up, the wood is Green, symbolizing the Grace of God in all His Creation. The Grace of God is alive and active in all His Creation.


NOTE : This Artwork is done using Old News Paper and Crépe Paper- to symbolize the Simplicity and Humility of Lord Jesus.

Here are some shots of the crib:
