Description

Delilah's large paintings depict current social issues which would be of interest to museums, where a wide audience would discuss them. The five sections of the book depict world travels, the Middle East, flesh and sex, funny interpretations of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, and the earth's victories and virtues."Delilah's portfolio is substantial, exciting, fascinating and even somewhat unnerving. The theme of her book is funny, satirical, romantic and philosophical. She has my full attention, piquing my curiosity with her exotic and erotic images. I want to see more, more, more."Kim ThomanMerritt College Art Professor"Delilah's work is an unusual combination of both the highly literate, well-traveled academic and, the earthy and sensuous spectator of our current times." Thais da Rosa, Ph.D.Professor Emerita, History and AnthropologyUniversity of California, BerkeleyWhen asked, Delilah responds, "When I paint I think of Sappho, Joan of Arc, Tolstoy, migrations, Byzantium, the Noble Savage, skin, the Metropolis, Gandhi, Walt Whitman, Madonna, Farsi, Joan Mitchell, The Roaring Twenties, stonings, immigrants, and Wangechi Mutu."
