New York-- Renowned psychologist and archetypal author James Hillman says “The soul, as a universal archetype, is the foundation of all human experience.”
In this series of new works, painted during his residency at Art on the Avenue, in the neighborhood of Inwood, NYC, Franck de las Mercedes asks us to rediscover the soul of the archetypal. Franck paints people who are connected to or live in upper Manhattan and presents them as mythological icons. Each subject is given an archetypal role based on their life narrative, occupation or calling.
