The image in Sund’s painting is of the doorway to Saint-Paul’s Asylum in Saint-Remy, a doorway that was also a subject for Vincent Van Gogh during his time there as a patient. The doorway symbolizes, in part, the passage from confinement to the largesse of the natural and the spiritual world. Sund is a painter, writer, and art educator whose reviews and features have appeared in Art & Papers Magazine, W.A.R.M. Journal, and many others.
