Saint Ecstasy is an oil painting depicting Saint Teresa of Ávila, based on Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa (1647–1652). The figure is shown reclining with her head tilted backwards, eyes partially closed and mouth open, conveying a heightened expression of rapture found in Bernini’s sculpture. Painted in grey, blue and white tones, the figure emerges from a dark background and is interrupted by vivid yellow strokes and drips. The yellow paint suggests a bodily or erotic release, complicating the religious connotations of Saint Teresa’s ecstasy.
