Mostly I'm rather unaffected when I see a dead body (animals the cat brought home), perhaps annoyance, sometimes disgust. Your works arouse other feelings: love, pride, passion and cheerfulness. Dancing, hugging, having so much fun playing fiddle with its own bones... (at least that's what I thought when I saw your recent painting).
So - what remains when life has gone? A dream of life - what it was or should have been, a celebration of life?
Morning newspaper comments the circumstances of death of Theo Angelopoulos who died after a traffic accident while shooting an action scene of his latest movie, they say this kind of death doesn't fit to his way of life and they say that maybe death never fits to life. I think they are wrong: life and death are closely connected. that what your taxidermy works are all about...
