This piece is from the body of work “Portraiture by Seneca”. The work is the artists’ depiction of the stages of invocation, emergence, endurance, and persistence. Each piece detailing a presence in one’s self that is ultimately manifested by the artists’ dream-like imagery. These works invoke a feeling of something cosmic, something beyond ourselves - and yet a tenderness shows through. The audience will notice sometimes the familiar figure of a young child will show up amidst the surrealism. Seneca continues to push and develop her visual vocabulary of her own metaphorical creatures in this new body of work.
