William Morris x Orthodox Icons

William Morris was a pioneer of the Arts & Crafts movement in the late 1800’s. His work was a symptom of a much larger Christian reformation, which imbued his designs.

Morris’ art is composed of heavily decorative floral patterns that I’ve combined with illustrated Eastern Orthodox icons (mainly) from Byzantine and Russian culture. They are displayed within Orthodox churches across the world, often used as an iconostasis and “as points of visual and spiritual intersection with eternal things”.

The duality of secular vs non-secular artforms spoke to me on many personal levels and revealed an attractive memetic continuity.
