Unlocking Knowledge
"Unlocking Knowledge" is the first work created from the pages of a more than century-old Masonic volume titled A Library of Freemasonry Illustrated.
The book had suffered water damage, staining, and deterioration beyond restoration. A Brother entrusted it to me with the hope that it might be given a second life. Rather than allowing it to fade into obscurity, I began drawing directly onto its surviving pages.
Each work in this series was created one page at a time. I would read the text before me and respond visually to the ideas it inspired.
This first piece brings together symbols of mortality, mystery, and illumination:
A skull and skeleton key.
A keyhole revealing deeper understanding.
An open book.
The Square and Compasses.
The Sun and Moon.
The Flower of Life.
The original printed words remain largely legible beneath the drawing, creating a layered dialogue between past and present. Ancient mystery meets modern reflection. Tradition meets personal transformation.
The result is not simply an illustration, but a reclamation. A damaged volume restored through art and intention.
For the Mason who understands that knowledge is never accidental. It must be unlocked.
