 BORGO IN BARCA 
2001

By Christine Van Camp Zecca  

Medium: Oil on Canvas 24” by 20” 

Italian Period

A borgo is an old Italian hill top village from the Middle Ages built of Stone to be easily defended. In the dream it was contained in an open boat. A young boy plays at the seashore in the dark. The Midnight Sun reveals the serpent rising. It is contained within building where out one window it is dark with an eclipsed moon and out the other there is daylight the color of the eclipse underneath cloud cover. The Midnight Sun is being pushed by a Scarab though the underworld so hopefully it will rise the next morning, as in the Egyptian myths from antiquity.
