"The Leviathan Cross is sometimes referred to the cross of Satan, which means the "Satans Cross". Depicted on the bottom is an infinity sign (∞), and above is a double cross (‡). The Double cross symbolizes protection and balance between persons. The infinity sign underlines the constant and infinite nature and most likely symbolizes the eternal universe, this may have been used by Anton LaVey in The Satanic Bible to as a mockery of the cross, to show that humans are their own centrum of balance, and truth. This is what the ideology of Anton LaVey and the followers of the Church of Satan believe, and this is what this symbol represents in this association.
An upside-down crucifix is also a symbol embraced by Satanists. That confuses some people as it is seen as the Petrine Cross or "The Cross of St. Peter" since, according to Origin of Alexandria, Simon Peter was crucified upside down. However, turning a symbol like a cross upside-down is symbolic on it's own and the interpretation of doing so differs among Catholics and Satanists.
In Alchemy, the Leviathan's cross is a symbol for sulfur, which is one the three essential elements of nature.
In Asia, its name is the Brimstone Symbol.
The association with the Leviathan makes it a symbol of depth and surfacing. The multiple crossroads of two crosses can be interpreted as a sign of free choice, it can also be seen as a stroke-through "equal-to" (=) to show that every person has their own life." - Fandom Symbolism

I am a self-taught artist (born on November 3, 1975 in Belgrade, Serbia) experienced in various canvas painting techniques, sculpting and book binding. I specialize in using diverse materials and methods to make my books have a worn out, aged and raw look. My works were also recognized by the film industry, so some of them appeared in several films.
My work is inspired by the past, specifically the medieval times. My cat, Jelisaveta, monitors everything I make, so you can be sure it passed thorough control. I use multi-purpose 3D objects which can be used as book keepers, treasure keepers or to fill in the space with their elegance (even though they look rough at first glance).
