Lida and the Sawn - Carole A. Feuerman

            For over forty years I have been making sculptures of the figure.
Their stories are my stories, sometimes autobiographical and
sometimes stories I just need to tell. While their outward appearance
is often of beauty and tranquility, these elegant sculptures have a
common thread that touches all of us and masks time and space.
With my sculpture Leda and the Swan, we see a figure embellished with
gold and crystals lounging on a painted swan. Upon further contempla-
tion, the piece really embraces the eroticism associated with much of
Greek mythology, whiles telling the story of deceit and treachery. Leda
is portrayed in a 1920’s bathing suit, but was really influenced by a
Greek fable going back in time. In the story, the God Zeus, who was
disguised as a swan, seduces Leda who then bore Helen of Troy.
