About this artwork
My wife and I often visit antique and collectible stores. There is always so much to see and what I see, I find inspiring. In this particular collectibles store, I manipulated the arrangement of the merchandise with references to fit a theme of dreams and fire. The Erte-like partition features Vesta, the Greek goddess of hearth and earthly fires. The clocks, lamps, gasoline sign and even the owner's sleeping pet Dalmatian, a dog often associated with firefighters, hint at dreams and fire.
