Apprivoisée, Not “Tamed”
2018
acrylic on bird’s eye piqué
18 inches in diameter
The title for this piece refers to The Little Prince and the way it’s been badly translated into English, something that I talk about in some detail in this video. This isn’t the first time one of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s characters has found their way into my art. In 2014, the Prince himself helped me make an important point about copyright.
