DISENGAGE, 1987

In Freud’s interpretation of dream symbols, the house or shelter connotes the soul. The dual graphic images are that of a water tower and a circus tent, being swept away by a flood. The metaphors are numerous. At the time I was about to separate from my wife and child, yet many years later I realized the dual structures applied to my own subconscious, as the sole survivor of a twin birth.
