Curatorial Statement

This piece is the artist's representation of the song Severus and Stone, by Radical Face. Using photographs collected from the wealth of images online, she constructed a triptych of three scenes, corresponding to the three major sections of the lyrical narrative. The religious imagery evoked in the presentation (particularly the frame, which is borrowed from the San Giovenale Triptych, and the halo and Christlike positioning of the child in the center) recalls the spiritual impression of the music, with the personal quality of folk and the angelic choir that appears throughout.
