"Spanish
Pig Woman of Cadiz", 2000
pen & ink, collage, watercolor
on handmade paper, 31"x22"
Expression
of a bullfight as seen by a woman spectator. It
provoked in Gavin the question: ‘Why does
she have a dick in her head?’ "Transformation",
said Gavin, when pressed, "that’s ART.
I am imposing my inner secret psyche onto an unsuspecting
choice of model, the ultimate physiognomy, the male
preserve, the fountain of life, but, nevertheless,
the secondary organ of desire and creation. Man
sucks and moves on. Women evolve within procreation
and therefore expand their natural parameters".
