Eros (Dada e Patrice) 1990.08.30 140 x 200, acrylic on paper mounted on canvas What is it that the women are doing, so strangely united as they are? A black maiden in a seductively coloured robe is silhouetted against the light, but a white maiden stands naked in the light… There is something between them which emanates light, something invisible which creates alarm, dismay, pity: a rite, or an amputation, perhaps? But the sacrifice is not yet complete: the white maiden’s head is suddenly cut off and Eros himself, a god most sweetly kind and mysteriously ambiguous, appears in its place. |
 |
The Sphinx (Circe) 1990.09 140 x 200, acrylic on paper mounted on canvas You have a double nature: your face is made of light and shadow. In yourself there is the winged strenght of the Spirit, but you also have tentacles, ready to spring up like a whip. This is the magic ambiguity of the Sphinx, or are you Circe? Under your wing, You conceal the plenitude of your senses. |
