Original artwork description:
When she has some spare time, Ta is an avid reader. She recently read the Thai edition of Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova. It's sheer brilliance led her to curate her 'Goddess' collection. Many goddesses are hanging on walls all over the world. Goddesses have for centuries been linked to virtues such as beauty, love, sexuality, motherhood, and fertility. They are the link that unites mythological divine worlds and humans.
This Goddess dreams of her lover, the most powerful Greek God, Zeus. He presents himself to her in the form of a swan. Ta says of this Goddess, "I wanted the painting to appear as a dream as if you were looking at someone having a dream and wondering what is happening, is that a swan coming to take her or is it all just a dream?".
Materials used:
Oil on canvas
