About this artwork
Drifting across a dreaming face, are dazzling clouds of white and
grey. Beneath the painted surface is rock hard plaster, cast in
the form of the death mask of the famous French Emperor, Napoleon.
The face floats high on the gallery wall as if in the sky.
Why do you think the artist has painted clouds on the face?
Would it make you feel different if he had painted lightening and thunder? Imagine
this character came to life. What would his story be?
