#1 "Siren"

The Art

A friend from Nigeria told me a long story complete with a sing-along chorus about a Deer Woman. He said, "she transformed herself and hid in the complexion of a deer.#34; I love that there are so many different woman characters in world folklore who transform, grant wishes, and disappear into myth. When the Milford Fine Arts Council asked me to transform a submarine, I immediately thought of sea sirens and mermaids. After that it was all about chicken wire, plaster cloth, and paint.
