This piece was inspired by Bacon’s triptych and his quote, “It’s
always hopeless to talk about painting- one never does anything but talk around
it.” That is exactly what I wanted the viewers to do: talk around the painting.
Single-handedly experience the transformation of the body from one sin of life
to the other as if one is in Dante’s Purgatory. I have tried to echo the rhythm
of Rembrandt’s brushstrokes to convey the vanity and jagged bits of life with
the rough and quick lines.
