I know that divine providence brought me to the Uncut Mountain. As a poet, I long have searched for a visualization of Adam carrying out God’s command to name the animals, also God’s creation in this time. Taxonomy, description, language: thus began God’s work through man. Science, art, writing, civilization itself. All of this, through the Lord, emanates through this icon.
