Title:The Prophet Artist: S. King Medium: Mixed Media on Wood Panel Dimensions: 12" x12" Year: 2025
The Prophet is a reverent portrayal of a young child as a vessel of ancestral power and divine potential. Adorned with traditional face markings and ceremonial jewelry, the child gazes forward—neither afraid nor uncertain, but already rooted in the memory of those who walked before. Their youth is not a limitation but a sacred beginning.
Behind the figure, a radiant mandala of sacred geometry forms a powerful spiritual halo. Inspired by the Sri Yantra, a symbol of creation, balance, and cosmic unity, the geometric pattern reminds us that the divine is not distant—it lives within us from the very beginning. The interlocking triangles speak to the harmony of masculine and feminine energy, and the eternal cycle of life and awakening.
This piece serves as a reminder that wisdom is not always old, and prophecy does not always come with age. Sometimes, the clearest truth comes through the smallest voice.
