STAR TORSO (APOLLO)
OIL ON LINEN
30" X 40" INCHES

Star Torso (Apollo) was inspired by the painting Butterfly Nebula (Apotheosis). Its a variation of the male figure in the Nebula. Adorned with translucent golden tattoo symbols reflecting the nature of 'mythic' illuminations that has poetic resonance at its core. The torso choreography alludes to the transcendental hyper-extention one associates with ballet, modern dance of athletic expression.
