Painting with light

Hmmmm...certainly original....

Wonderful, wonderful... Aside from the craftsmanship of the image, there's a religious component (he's dressed like a monk, the cross, her face towards the heavens...).

I would like to know more about how this image came into creation (that's no pun on religion I swear), are these two actually blind? so as they will never view this image? why was her crotch chosen to be spread as it is? what is the message as it were, and what did they want from it if anything. I love it and I really would like to know as much as possible about it.
