  • Is there any mythology behind that inspired this?

  • @MisterBoswell

    Yes, this is an African folktale told by the San people of Namibia/Botswana. About a women who was tricked by a demon and then trapped inside a tree. The god Heiseb (that can walk the earth as an animal) came to her rescue and helped her to take revenge on the demon.

    Ah, thank you.

  • wow, your dresses work in that space very well. and you grounded the work. I know this space and the passage of air.

    one thing and it is always too late. I took the signage away when I did my Key West Video, because it is not part of my art. Lucky you, you have original music. I rip it off and finally they close down my video. VERY GOOD
