WATCHER of the DEEP


"Watcher of the Deep" by Troy's Work Table. Sidewalk chalk and chalk pastels on 3' x 3' concrete panel board. Monday 16 February 2015.

---

Watcher of the Deep is the consort of She, the Mother Octopus.

---

Inspired by modern Coast Salish masks of Octopus (Man), Watcher of the Deep inhabits the dark fathoms of the celestial sea, waiting for the seeking arms of the black star octopus.

---

He sits to the right of She in the night sky, a small constellation dwarfed by the more brilliant and numerous stars of the Mother Octopus.
