Target Shooter

This work is produced in a Flanders triptych style consisting three panels which shows a monochrome picture when closed. In the middle are shooters in various equipments and on the left and right panels are their targets. Saint Sebastianus on the right is a Christian martyr-typically painted like this with arrows in his body-who is said to protect people from black plague and therefore has been a positive motif for Christian art over centuries. Only him and the soldiers are painted in black and white here to imply the passage of time. Each motions are a simple relationship between the shooter and the target, but plenty of them are collected in a single space to give a sense of peculiar beauty.
