In the silent moments after Christ’s broken corpse is taken down from the cross, it becomes the absolute objectification of suffering. A vessel into which every tear of humanity is poured. Christ’s body is crushed by the anguish of humanity, and it is in Christ’s suffering and death that we are united.
The abstraction of the body allows for the viewer to project on to the form their own experience and vision of suffering.
