Pandora's Trojan Horse and the Smell of Money

Pandora's Trojan Horse and the Smell of Money

2010 27.5 x 44.5" ~ 70 x 118 cm Acrylic on Canvas

When I was a child I remember sitting in the back seat with all seven of us squeezed into the family car, and as we drove over the bridge by the pulp mill, I always gagged, and my eyes watered. It smelled like everyone in the car had simultaneously passed wind. I would look out the window at the mill spewing smoke into the air, and dumping effluent into the river. One day I asked my parents, "What is that terrible smell?"

"That," they replied with a smile, "is the smell of money."
