Since a very young age I have imagined scenes and images that have captivated and overwhelmed me; with disciplined
and guided attenuation I have learned to turn these scenes into a reality through photography.
"The Exhibit" - Large two sided image gallery installation piece. The back side of this image is of the same scene but taken from the direction in which we are looking. The image below of the egg was on the floor under the open space hanging image where it had landed from being carried by the wind.
For centuries the nine muses have inspired writers,
poets and artists. “The Exhibition” is for me, the first image in what is the
beginning of a long journey documenting my artistic exploration of self and the
world around me through the nine muses, Calliope the Poet, Clio the Historian,
Erato the Poet of Love, Euterpe the Singer, the Tragic Melpomene, the Veiled
Polyhymnia, Terpsichore the Dancer, Thalia the Comedian and Urania the
Astronomist.
"Muse as Art” is the photographic exploration of
the nine muses in which the proverbial Muse will be the “Art” rather than the
spark or inspiration of the artists. The Muses have been my inspiration for over
40 years and this is a Tribute to them and to the wonderful women that inspire
children, friends, family, lovers and artists.
Please come walk
with me at www.MuseAsArt.com where this journey will be documented by fellow
photographers, assistants as well as myself; in hopes that we will also inspire
you.
Click on 'The Exhibit' or the 'Egg' to enter "Muse As Art". Again, please note this site contains nudity.
The egg pays a role in the Muses and Greek and Roman Mythology and signifies the Birth or the Creation of the world. The Egg in 'Muse as Art' signifies the Start of this Journey and thus the Egg will appear in all nine images.
