Symbols have revolutionized societies, and the cross has been continuously redefined. From an instrument of brutal execution, to a sacred ideological emblem, to an artistic commercial identity, its meaning shifts through design, context, and interpretation. This installation explores how visual culture manipulates the cross, urging us to really consider, “Do we shape symbols, or do they shape us?” Crossed Lines examines the evolving visual language of one of history’s most polarizing icons.
