I have my own interpretations of Edvard Munch's paintings. No
doubt Munch would turn in his grave at my interpretations of his works. Mind
great painters tend to be more open and in advance of the opinions and
conventions of their times.
 |
The Scream, 1893
Edvard Munch's most famous painting. We all have a
personal interpretation for this wonderful painting. Mine is the discovery
that transsexualisum won't go away and has to be faced. I have done me fair
share of running away. The trouble is that you can run but you can't hide.

 |
Ashes, 1894
I have my own interpretation of this painting. The
ashes of my old life as a man.
|
 |
Puberty,1894
Fear and Sexuality are routinely linked to Munch's art,
for us Transsexuals we long for the second puberty to correct natures
mistakes.

Madonna, 1894/5
Rebirth post operatively so to speak
|
 |
The Three Stages of Woman (Sphinx),1894
The three stages of woman (Sphinx) has pagan echoes. Wicca has
a similar image based on the phases of the moon The new moon symbolises the
virgin (or the girl); the full moon the maiden (or the mother); and the old, or
waxing moon, the crone (or old woman) The dark moon represents death and
rebirth. |
