Title: The Metamorphosis of Dom Narcissus feeling not too bad yourself!
Medium: Oil on board
Completed: 2001
Size: 50cm x 40cm
This work is about a friend I met at university. I remember him wearing a long thick raincoat which made him closely resemble a water tower that I could see from a distance out the window. The word Narcissus is of course from Salvador Dali who has greatly influenced me and that the friend I knew also had narcissistic feelings. When ever you would say “hi” to him, he would always reply by saying, “not too bad yourself? From that moment, I would always hear those words whenever I looked at that water tower.
