Atavism
30x40in, oil on canvas - 2020The tendency to revert to the ancestral.
I am balancing my life between where I’ve come from and where I want to go, who I am meant to become.
As I have been influenced by ancient Egyptian art, I recreated myself as Osiris, God of the underworld. In this light, I am recreating my path to give life back to what gives life/light to me.
There’s a lot I’d like to pick at with this picture to correct but for now, this is what I have. I’ve been working on it since March of this year.
