Lure is a piece I worked on for quite a while. Lure represents the contrivances we engage in to enhance being seen as desirable, something special. This piece also has the added advantage of shimmying to vibrations, as it is slightly cantilevered, thus pushing forward its bold nature. Like the woman bejeweled, perfumed to the nines, make-up perfect and thrusting her bosom forward Lure says "Look at me, pick me, am I not the prettiest in the room?" Also like the woman with so many artifices at work for her Lure is entirely a fantasy and not representative of a naturally occurring flower.
