Orpheus IV: Sforzando
Acrylic and Collage on Wood

Fiery burgundy-haired, serpentine Hades manifests herself and stains her lips red with Eurydice’s blood. Just as a snake took Eurydice’s life with a bite to the foot in the original myth after her wedding with Orpheus, Hades plays this grim role just as soon as Orpheus finds happiness. Hades’ touch taints a deathly black to Eurydice’s dress and disintegrates the musical treble clefs.
