Greg Tricker is a stone carver and painter whose profound and simple style is deeply rooted in a mystical tradition of art. Qualities of myth, an innocence of spirit akin to the folk art tradition, and a powerfully theatrical element feature in his work. This inspiring group of his paintings and stone carvings portrays the suffering, joy, and innocence of St. Bernadette, a poor shepherdess who had miraculous visitations from the Virgin Mary at Lourdes in 1858. These visionary paintings present a radical new images of St. Bernadette and Mary.
Phillip Vann explores the background to these iconic, earthy, graceful, and redemptive paintings. Sister Wendy Becket describes Tricker as "a deep painter, somebody possessed by a vision of holiness."
