I find the idea of phrenology interesting, but more for its visual impact and for its status as a curious relic of history.
The lines on the figure's head are loosely based on classical phrenology. I pierced the canvas area around the eyes, and glued two CDs to the back of the canvas to create the shimmering effect. I wrote the words 'Covet' and 'Envy' on each eye.
The lips are sewn shut with steel wires to show that the figure suffers its unfulfilled desires in silence.
When I saw the red and black color, I already knew it would be something of evil and danger.
It is an amazing painting.
