ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἄμπελος, ὑμεῖς τὰ κλήματα (I am the vine; you are the branches)

Title: ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἄμπελος, ὑμεῖς τὰ κλήματα (I am the vine; you are the branches)
Creator: Nicolaou, Phivi
Abstract: “ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἄμπελος, ὑμεῖς τὰ κλήματα” was created by my immersion in the world of Greek monasteries. The simplicity and humility that defines the life of nuns creates an environment that invites the soul to purify, stripping away worldly attachments and ego driven desires. However it requires unwavering devotion not only to the Devine, but to themselves and this unique way of life they have chosen. The work stands as a testament to their complete surrender for something greater, inspired by their most powerful spiritual moment, their collective prayers, a very defining moment of theirs.
