Dedicated to my Aunt Virginia Gigliette who is a 15+ year Breast Cancer Survivor.
My Great Aunt, who loves clowns and her Chicago Bulls (hence the red and black colors), is the inspiration for this piece. We are a close Italian family and Harlequins are known to be a part of Italian performance comedy dating back to the 18th century. Laughter is often the best form of a some pain easement and Cancer patients of any kind could always use something to smile about in the midst of pain. Also an interesting meaning behind the word "Harlequin" is "to remove or conjure away". I find this meaning to be a fitting attitude and feeling towards Cancer.
