Created in honor of the canonization of Padre
Pio, this sculpture is a reminder that the victims of 9/11 were not alone
on their journey into everlasting life. At the center of the composition,
Padre Pio, sculpted in the shape of the shape of the Eternal Flame, raises
the Twin Towers out of the chaos, death and destruction into the peace and
tranquility of eternal life. In the lower part of the sculpture, the New
York City skyline represents the potential for the humanity to be good,
productive and creative. Contrasting the skyline are the tumultuous
clouds, symbols of mankind's capacity for evil and sin. Out of the ash and
smoke of Ground Zero, Padre Pio rises as the Holy Phoenix, giving new life
to the towers.
Commissioned by Hon. Attilio J. Paglia, this piece was donated to Padre Pio's Holy Shrine in San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy. Bronze. 14"Wx18"H |
