This work captures the essence of the prophecy of Lamia, the former queen of Libya who gave her name to the city of Lamos. According to legend, Hera cursed her with perpetual insomnia, or prevented her from closing her eyes, while also giving her the power to remove and replace them.

At the center of the piece, a figure stands out with two eyes that seem to protrude from their sockets, symbolizing the queen’s power and her tragic fate. The work marks an evolution in the artist’s style, as the explosion of textures and stones does not evoke the nomadic movement of her previous works. Instead, these new textures generate a sense of fear and chaos while emulating the formation of territory and erratic movement, reflecting Lamia’s torment.
