Heidi Taillefer. The Muse. Edition Size: 40. 21 x 13 Inches Archival Pigment Print on 330gsm Fine Art Paper. "The Muse was originally intended as an angry expression against a love interest, but as the work began I limited any real insult I wanted to place into the image, and as such it created an intensity and a weird transcendent perception to change my understanding of the man. This is also a principle fundamental to Hermetic philosophy/Kabbalah, in order to elevate conscious awareness the resistance must occur during an intense urge to do something bad :-) in order to bring about a much higher good or understanding. " - Heiidi Taillefer.
