Dimenticato Mori
Dimenticato Mori
Oil Paint on Wood Panel
2008

This is a painting of a mask I made. The title means "death forgotten." I was interested in the alchemical transformation of dirt, or clay in this case, into gold (art). So basically, the mask began as a thought and clay and was transformed into a mask, and then into a painting.
