Baroness of Eads: Olympia in the Age of Technology Print

Would it help if I explained the thought process behind the work? The Baroness is fond of art history and occasionally draws reference, or pays homage to great works by incorporating their symbolism, coloration or subject matter into her own surrealistic works of art rendered in oil on canvas. I do suppose that some people are so taken aback by the abruptness of those ever present eyes attached to a classical musical instrument, that they fail to see that these prying eyes are meant to represent the cameras (and microphones) we have come to expect to be watching and listening to our every commonplace, but in the recent past private, moves and utterances. The boudoir is not spared.
