Narcissus, Oil on canvas, 60"x32"

"Archetyptonics"

Lost in a psychological landscape this series of paintings reestablishes my desires at the sacred grove, where unlikely archetypes still have the ability to move the passions of men and charm the feminine principle.

The myth of the Golden Age, before we sought to be fully tamed, restlessly confronts us, and the naiveté of our modern sensibilities plays out on every canvas. Pictorial space is divided and subdivided, finished and unfinished, bringing with it the raw foundation of a civilization yet to be formed.

Narcissus, Madonna, Duende, and Lilith, revel on the same stage.

Chaos merges with the chunky order as colors and forms are turned over.

We work, we sin, we sleep, and we are glorified; naked, without shame. This is our Garden, before the great Pan was dead.
