Disparate matrimonial
Uses details from Virgils Aeneid VIII, and also a reference from Erinensis whereby a punishment from Mezentius for the soldiers of Aneas involved them being tied together and paraded until the live bodies bonded with the dead upon their backs and a unison of decay smothered the living ( perhaps not just physically )......
Made me connect.

Untitled, Mark Rothko, 1969
Painted on paper as opposed to large scale canvas because by this stage his aortic aneurysm had left him too weak to do larger pieces. The smaller size makes me feel that it has a far more intimate quality and sense of vulnerability about it, which I really like. I think it is important to consider the fact that he committed suicide the year after, as much as I hate forcing the artist's oeuvre into a narrative of a progression towards an end."Lots of people who think they are into fashion are actually just into shopping"
