26.8.06 was made in two time layers.
The first - in New York in 16.6.99.
It was the day of my 27th birthday,
I had a sudden urge to make
something huge.
to leave something behind me
when I'm gone.
I painted this self-portrait on A canvas
of 168 × 168 cm, exactly my hight.
.
i painted all night long, from dusk till down,
in the living room of my 1st. Ave. apartment.
It was a version that didn’t have the pacifier,
seemingly very narcissistic,
but actually quit the opposite.
cut to 2006. I’m in a very unhappy marriage,
constantly on the verge of ending.
Feeling unheard. Unseen.
Needy like a child.
As if my voice cannot be heard.
I took this huge painting,
went up to the roof of the apartment
I shared with my ex-husband,
and painted a huge pacifier over the lush,
femme fatal lips I once painted.
