Self as Idiot-Savant

Self as Idiot-Savant, 2008: 7"x9" acrylic / board

Idiot savants also represent people who have experienced certain types of spiritual phenomenon, but are often paralyzed by their experience because they do not have a context within to place it. The Spirit has spoken to them and they are able to repeat what they heard, but they have no understanding of what they are uttering nor can they grow from this experience. Until they can resolve what has happened to them, they remain unable to digest the essence of the experience. - Dr . Lee E. Warren, B.A., D.D.
