Curatorial Description:
In The Covenant of the Elephants, ArNoUx offers a powerful allegory rooted in the biblical narrative of Noah. Two elephants, rendered in emotional abstraction, intertwine not only in form but in faith — a visual testimony of their belief in God’s promise. Emerging from expressive clouds of blue, red, and gray, their bodies suggest both survival and surrender. The female figure to the right, haloed in luminous yellow, gazes forward in peace, echoing the grace of divine obedience. Through bold textures and symbolic movement, this painting captures the sacred act of entering the ark — not out of fear, but through trust. This is a tribute to the creatures who, through faith, became part of God’s new beginning.
