Legs Icon (Waysayer)

19″x10″x4″
Pigment, oil, skin glue and 12kt gold leaf on curved panel
2008

1 of 8 divination tablets. 1 of 4 which have one side of white gold (12kt) – 50% gold and 50% silver – yin and yang are equalized. These are the newest and final pieces in the Legs Icon group.

The divination question here is: “In what way and what was said.” The figure in the opening looks like he is going somewhere. It struck me that one can be a naysayer, a yeasayer, but it is more interesting and productive to say neither yes nor no, but instead describe the way.
