Haile Selassie (Power of the Trinity)

Haile Selassie consisted of three interconnected vinyl hexagons and triangles echoing those in the Star of David, but interlinked and illuminated by candles in cyan, yellow and magenta. I used these primary colors to build the color spectrum, which I linked back to Noah’s rainbow and pact with God after the Flood, and his three sons Ham, Japheth and Shem (the new people of the new world). Moreover, the name Haile Selassie, emperor and Rastafari messiah, means “Power of the Trinity.”
