In The Crossings, Azzopardi maps out her world using bold symbolism, spiritual allegory and poetic rendering. Graphic markings can be interpreted as fences dividing fields in a monochrome landscape, with white lines painted on asphalt. Her legible phrases and unreadable scrawl simultaneously provide a message and whisper an incantation. 
In Azzopardi’s growing series, as well as mirroring the iconography of the Crucifixion, the Cross becomes an intersection, a stop sign, a border crossing and a symbol signifying a place for hope and prayer. Each new work can be seen as an excavation and an obliteration, a territory of masking and revealing. The paint is smeared on, and washed away. With a nod to romanticism, the cross also references the swash-buckling tradition of how “X marks the spot” on a pirate’s map, indicating where the treasure is buried. “
