New Tattoo
“MUSICA DELENIT BESTIAM FERAM”
Adam’s skeleton key tattoo was based on an image in Hans Haveron’s “Sepia’s Secret”. Hans talked about Adam and the meaning behind the painting that inspired the tattoo:
“In “Sepia’s Secret” there is the female “goddess”, her cloak outstretched to protect two children, symbols of innocence and counterpoint to the ego. They hold a large key (You can see it in the photo). Above the goddess is the all-seeing eye of the universe, with its keyhole shaped pupil.
The point of the story is that the child holds the key to unlock the wisdom of the universe. Therefore all of us but especially artists of all types must always make sure the child is present. The most difficult part of being an artist is the battle against the ego to let the child prevail so the art can be made. The child is the creator. If the ego gets too big, the child dies and so will your art.”
