My immediate reaction to this image is the beautiful use of color used. Studying it closer you can decipher the subject matter, which can come across as shocking. For me, personally, I find it interesting and appealing. It has such a strong concept. Without knowing the artists intent, you can clearly see that the subject matter is a crucifix submerged in a yellow fluid. When I first saw this image I just knew it was urine. Although it is urine, it makes such a beautiful, almost ironic, golden glow throughout the image,
There is an awesome play of rule of thirds going on in this piece. I really think the light source helps the piece dramatically and it really plays up the concept. There is also a nice contrast happening between the light in the figure and the dark amber background.
