A contemporary approach to the greek mythology.
This series addresses different moments of the pond where Narcissus fell in love with his beauty and drowned while staring into his own reflection in a pond.
While artwork "part one" has more violent ripples, they spread out from where it went in the following pieces ( part two and part three)
Each piece is unique.
Narcissus, in Greek mythology, the son of the river god Cephissus and the nymph Liriope. He was distinguished for his beauty. According to Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Book III, Narcissus’s mother was told by the blind seer Tiresias that he would have a long life, provided he never recognized himself. However, his rejection of the love of the nymph Echo or (in an earlier version) of the young man Ameinias drew upon him the vengeance of the gods. He fell in love with his own reflection in the waters of a spring and pined away (or killed himself); the flower that bears his name sprang up where he died.
