4 photo montages of 08/15/2011

1st at 11:01 a.m

The bottles are replaced by a mask and a snorkel whose position clearly suggests (I didn’t see anything when I did this montage) that these are the sexual parts of the character on the left.

From the 1st photo montage, a cash register is associated with the image but always hidden on the backups.

2nd at 11:17 a.m

Image rotation mitigates sexual sens.

3rd at 11:29 a.m 

The tuba is in the hands of the woman and the mask-tuba set evokes much less the male sexual organs.

The support become circular to easily switch from one direction to another, and make it possible to arrive from a 3rd sens or more.

The hand holding the knife is inspired by Abraham’s hand in Michelangelo Merigi da Caravaggio’s painting: « The sacrifice of Isaac » .

The faceless side of the yellow character removes the knife from his back or his heart.

I tell myself that the two characters have « good backs ». In french « avoir bon dos » means « to be a good scapegoat »

I wonder what the woman is holding; I will have the answer tomorrow. 

The second direction of the painting is indicated by an arrow outside behind the window.

The next day, I see that double is a woman, so I have an answer: the woman is holding a knife. I still don’t know what the woman with the bun is holding and I tell myself that I will have the answer tomorrow.

The character with the big hand seems to wear a mask. 

Version of 04/06/2012

The face of the double is the portrait of Fillide Melandroni, posing for da Caravaggio for the painting: « Judith and Holophern »

When I drew the features of Judith, a 3rd sense appeared to me located just in the middle of the other two. 

So I painted the flowing blood and thought the bun woman could be called Simone.
Then I forgot this blood and this meaning.

When I removed the green mask of the character with the big hand, I thought I recognized myself in his features.

Then I wanted to paint the face of the woman with the newspaper, and for fear of recognizing her, I put a mask on her.

4 days after writing the above, I associate everything that had remained in white: the face, the hand, the buttocks, the bun, the newspaper, and I tell myself that I have been spanked a lot.

I stay for hours working on the neck (« cou » in french) of the masked woman… until drawing the clothLe coup de torchon!

la fessée ou double sensIn this direction, my mother is higher, she dominates me and I have red buttocks. The window is in this direction.

In this direction, I am higher than my mother, I dominate her and my buttocks are white.  The white monolith and the arrow are in this direction.
My double looks towards the window.
