Pasiphaë Nine

By Susan Banks 2019

Dimensions
60 x 60 x 4

Pasiphaë Nine is a synthesis of impressions from Minoan cultural artefacts and their restorations. Refs. Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Knossos, Aegean Sea and Queen Pasiphaë, the Minotaur’s mother. NB It not irrelevant that the “dolphins” appear rather figuratively due to tackling callionymus reticulatus painted for the #200 Fish, North Sea project. Oil on canvas.
