Kraken





Kraken

Mosaic on Panel
24” x 48”

Part of The Monster in the Mirror series. Kraken is the many tentacled monster of the deep, grasping at ships and hapless sailors and pulling them into its gaping maw. I can’t help drawing sexual correlations to the image, but that is the point of the mirror shards on the surface. The Monster series is about what we see in ourselves, and for each person looking at a mirror or an ink blot, what you see is meant to be more about yourself than the object you observe.
