Description
The figure walks toward the light. Her hair and dress are nothing but wax.
Poppies and pale flowers surround her; birds hover above. The oval frames the scene like a medallion; nothing spills into the corners, because there are no corners. Tenderness here is not weakness. It is silence amid rich red.
From a distance, a warm oval on a white wall.
Up close, baked wax, a white silhouette, Siggerinda’s signature.
For the bedroom and living room. The oval calls for a bare wall, not a cramped rectangle of furniture. In the evening, the copper in the center deepens.
An original.
