Societies have long employed images that visualize their belief systems or attempt to encapsulate a narrative of our human destiny. This work follows in that tradition. The uppermost vignette is a silhouette from the nursery rhyme “Jack be nimble”, a children’s rhyme that refers to a 19th century game and a form of fortune telling. In Roman mythology Parcae (plural) were the personifications of fate. They are used in this painting as bookend figures on either side of a cosmic machine that answers questions of fate. Three vintage light bulbs labeled “yes”, “maybe” and “no” sit atop the clock – like machine and illuminate answers to humanity’s eternal questions.
At the top of the composition are several re- configured tarot / divination cards belonging to an anonymous person circa 1930’s. The cards here are labeled; satisfaction dark woman, jealousy, dark man and betrayal. The grouping of these four cards refers to both positive and negative potentials concerning fate and offer clues to the viewer on a number of possible scenarios it could describe. The lower portion of the picture contains two silhouetted vignettes on either side of a central image of stars and planets against a dark void.
The left image is of two children in a small wagon being pulled by a beetle. This is a reference to Egyptian mythology and the sun god Khepri. who personifies birth / rebirth. Khepri is portrayed as a beetle that pushes the sun across the sky. Here the young innocents...

The Subtle Threads of Fate, Pop & Fantastical Symbolism, Oil Painting on Metal
By THEDIRTYFABULOUS
Located in Dallas, TX
Title: The Subtle Threads of Fate
Artist: thedirtyfabulous
Medium: mixed media on metal with polyurethane varnish
Size: 60” x 40” horizontal format
Date: 2013
Description:
“The Subtle Threads of Fate” is a line taken from the novel Wind up Bird Chronicles by Haruki Murakami. This painting does not illustrate any particular passage or character in the novel. Rather, it is a meditation on death and the symbolic, almost prophetic quality, even the most mundane occurrences in our lives can have upon us. This painting also serves, obliquely, as homage to the author. It is mirrored into two halves in a broken symmetry. On the left side images refer to spring, opulence and excess. The right side of the composition refers to states of decay, death, winter and transcendence. At the top of the painting, two muses with intertwined hair and coral branches support an interconnected series of tarot-card type images. These cards feature images of death, power lines at dusk, a maiden at a spinning wheel and an omniscient eye which was borrowed from an old surrealist photograph. These images act to further weave together references and connections the painting alludes to. Two white hands of fate situated at the lower portion of the picture act as a connecting point to these images. At the bottom center of the work is an image of an old astrological map...
