Porsager’s ICUnT (sans solEil I–V), ICUnT (mEssEnger I–V), and ICUnT (potEntial wEll I–IV) rework elements of the religious icon through a libidinal pun, transforming a historical pictorial system for opening the soul and making the divine appear. Borrowing from the icon’s traditional role as a mediator or window between the visible and the invisible, the series explores the relationship between matter and spirit, engaging contemporary notions of spirituality through a dialogue between the seen and the unseen. Suggesting that the spiritual is not separate from the material world, the works invite viewers to consider spirituality as a form of attunement – an openness to the deep material dimensions, forces, and relations that shape our experience of the world.
