"The
triptych entitled The Witches After Party is appropriated
from Goyas Flying Witches, 1798, currently at the Prado
in Madrid. Reconstructing this powerful painting, my aim was to
create a pictorial narrative that captured the aftermath events
of the Flying Witches, imagining the scenes or the subsequent
paintings by Goya, now dispersed, that have never been shown, or
have been lost in time. My interpretation draws out symbolic, religious
and political connections in a poetic and perverse play with residues
of the past and the present."
