The Snakes Pillows
Description: Gnostic symbol of two intertwined snakes in a distressed cool look. Gnostic beliefs differed in various ways, but central to them all was a dualistic theology that opposed a purely spiritual Supreme Being, who was both the origin of the cosmic process and the highest good, to a chaotic and evil material world. To the Ophites, man’s dilemma results from his being a mixture of these conflicting spiritual and material elements. Only gnosis, the esoteric knowledge of good and evil, can redeem man from the bonds of matter and make him aware of the unknown God who is the true source of all being.
Description: A retro-style composition featuring prominent text with a flaming background. The central element is an airplane depicted horizontally, with a coiled snake wrapped around a rod superimposed on it. The phrase "SIT BACK... RELAX... ENJOY THE FRIGHT." arches above, and "SNAKES ON A PLANE" is emblazoned below.
