 heatre of Myths": 11" x 14", Mixed media. A commissioned piece,
wherein the buyer wanted the setting for his portrait of Jim to be
at the Pere Lachaise grave site.
For this one, I was going
for a montage effect, as in the Morrison writings, As I look back/ over my life/ I am struck by
post/ cards/ Ruined snap shots/ faded posters/ Of a time, I can't
recall. It was this spirit, as
well as the rich, unique imagery that Jim always presented which I
was trying to express here.
This is some raw truth:
I looked for a girl in/ New
Mexican/ bars/ & found jail/ The prostitute looked out/ her cell
& saw/ Fuck god scratched/ on a leprous wall/ -- You're rambling
boy/ what of the rest...
Jim sits and ponders and
writes, but for a moment - he's about to get up and walk on down the
hiway, leaving us with this intense and jumbled montage of images
and thoughts.
Full color 8x10 prints
