Triple
Threat was created as part of the Superstition collection originally
exhibited in 2014 in Houston, Texas.
Following the theme of the body of work, this work is layered with multiple images of objects that have superstitions related to them. The sailing ship represents the multitude of superstitions that abound in maritime culture. The most commonly recognized superstition in this work is the paper cranes. In Japanese culture it is believed that if you fold 1000 paper cranes you will be granted a wish for your patience and dedication. In 2016 this work was submitted to the Royal Academy in London for their 2016 Summer Exhibition. It was accepted, but sadly, was not hung in the exhibition when it opened.
