Apollo & Daphne (Happy Trails)

Ah, yes, Bill - the Brother B....this fabulous sculpture of Apollo and Daphne (by Bernini) depicts the moment she turns herself into a laurel bush to avoid his act of rape.  This was the second of the vivisection photo collages, as members of 'Billy's family were pieced randomly to show the fractured family as the results of their mixed dynamics, thus forming the fractions and fractals of their personalities.   The ground also is foil, and saran wrap makes the wrinkles over the entire piece.  As the main character here wishes to return to Tucson, my farewell is included as Dale Evans might have sung to the Bucko Bill himself....
