Fall Preview: Clock in Shadow





Second Sacrifice by Mark Golamco

plywood with wood stain, 36" x 48"



"The artist once mentioned that the figure on the right in Second Sacrifice appears to be female but reveals virile qualities in a few seconds. It was in fact very interesting to observe. From afar, the figure apparently possesses female characteristics with long hair; on the other hand, from a relatively closer look, the texture of the facial hair clearly speaks of the male appearance. This effect was represented in a subtle and sophisticated manner. Actually, from the look of this long-haired figure, it is the image of Mark Golamco himself."

-Sung Min Ma, Class of 2008
