In this case, New Orleans offered a great deal of beautiful imagery to work with. I included a skeleton trumpet player, an alligator, and the Louisiana state flag.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eI think the Louisiana state flag is one of the coolest in the country. I love when states use representational imagery rather than pure abstraction. This flag is especially strange and beautiful: it depicts a mother pelican piercing her own breast to feed her young with her blood. It’s a very old Catholic motif dating back to the Middle Ages, and it can still be found in cathedrals and liturgy throughout Europe. The image symbolizes Christ’s sacrifice for his people.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAttie and I recently traveled to New Orleans for the opening of my new Solo show there.
