'Lessons
in Love #2' blends my thematic interest in the 'What if?' question. Choosing
one's own reality instead of following the predestined path, that I proposed in
my series dealing with the Adam and Eve mythology, and the well-loved Swiss
legend of William Tell. I love his defiance and courage inspiring many to stand
up for themselves. In this piece, the figure is indeed an expert marks(wo)man –
as was Tell – but now the apple is on her own head and a chameleon on her
outstretched foot. The chameleon icon often weaves its way into my work…they
imply transition, change, adaption, camouflage and self-preservation.”
