Jesus "sparking" Christ
UK gallery-goers have been left spooked after claiming they saw sparks shooting from the eyes of a Jesus statue.
Some art lovers claim the steel and bronze Brian Burgess Christ figure - on display at the Liverpool Academy of Art - possesses miraculous trance-inducing powers.
Academy manager June Lurnie said: "Some people have said the portrait is evil and they can see sparks in Jesus’ eyes. Others actually kneel down and go into a trance convinced they are connecting with God." The statue, entitled ‘Cleansing of the Temple’, is the most controversial item ever displayed at the Academy and depicts an angry Christ brandishing a whip.
Burgess said one woman was transfixed for thirty minutes after preying before the statue and falling into a trance.
