This trilogy opened my eyes to a powerful truth. “New”, “New II” and “New III” is not only a turning point in my work but a healthy nod to “Barnett Newman” who has greatly influenced what I do. Hence, the work represents a “new” body of work, a “new” phase in my walk with God and essentially a “new-man”. Quite amazingly, “Barnett” means “burned clearing” denoting the clearing of a woodland area for a new start.
