Pull Me In and Let Me Drown in Your Abyss

This project is a part of Echo-Morphed Mythologies in the character of Ole Riemann.
‘But Narcissus’ body was nowhere to be found. In its place, they discovered a yellow flower with a white corona in its midst.’ (Ovid, 8 AD). ‘Pull Me In and Let Me Drown in Your Abyss’ draws on the myth of Narcissus, who lost himself in his own reflection before undergoing metamorphosis and reappearing as a narcissus flower. In this work, as in others by Riemann, the original function of a carpentry piece is subverted, allowing the object to take on new meaning as a symbolic memento or prop.
