This is a person who holds herself up to her own gaze, stepping outside her physical self to see her place in the world. Quoting the film “King Kong”, here the giant is replaced by an enormous version of ourselves which supports us, by a Queen, ruler of our destiny.” Listing is for UNFRAMED canvas.
