Unicorn In Captivity
My latest self-portrait is a recreation and personalization of the 16th century tapestry "Unicorn In Captivity." There is security for me, and approval from proper society, if I stay inside the fence. Outside is freedom to be my strange, unique self, to be judged, frowned upon, and celebrated. The chain on my wrist and the low fence does not really keep me in captivity. My fear of disapproval and risk keeps me in there. The outside is unknown and dark, yet holds promise of excitement and beauty.
