This is an image of an installation of a backlit transparency (44′ by 65″) which I exhibited in my studio during the May Art Loop. It was the only light in the studio so it was dramatic. Many people unfamiliar with my work were afraid to enter the studio. Finally a good friend of mine went into the hall to cajole people to enter. “Don’t worry” he said, and healing ” it won’t bite you”. Fortunately, many overcame their fear of the big nude.
Perhaps it wasn’t a size issue… but rather a fear of dark spaces issue, especially when emotions are piqued due to the nature of the subject..?
