Artist Statement:
ABOUT THE MICHAEL LISA
PAINTING:
In 1994,the Mystery of Michael
Jackson inspired me to paint
him as the Mona Lisa.
The white tabs on the robe
place this painting in the
"PAPER DOLL" Series. This
series represents the various
roles individuals play.
The individuals who I have
chosen to portray in this
series are
public figures who have not
only created the roles they
play,
but often have additional
roles thrust upon them by
public opinion.
ABOUT THE NEO-MYTHOLOGY
SERIES:
Mythological belief systems -
their characters and stories -
have always been a significant
part of world history.
In the Neo-Mythology Series, I
choose characters and stories
from all kinds of mythologies:
Greco-Roman, Norse, Christian,
Judaic, Hindu etc. and
“contemporize” them with 20th/
21st Century ‘props’ to paint
narratives which reflect
current situations / attitudes
in our world. These
situations / attitudes: War,
Ignorance, Indifference,
Self-centeredness, Fear,
Fragility, Greed and such have
been a part of the human
condition throughout the
history of the world.
If history repeats itself - so
do mythologies.
The Neo-Mythology Series is
one of several ongoing series
that I’ve been working on
throughout the years.
