Artist Statement: “I chose a piece with nuance and complexity for this show. Mona Lisa is a work with a layered presence. Her exterior is reserved, elegant, mysterious. While suggesting form, her representation plays with different kinds of flatness, while simultaneously being highly textured. The piece is both still and moving, both 2D and 4D. An interior is revealed through the video in her necklace, which is sensual and humorous. The work has many references—to Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, to a folk tale, in which the kind, but abused daughter is blessed by a witch, so that when she speaks, flowers and jewels come from her mouth.”
