Judith and Holofernes is for us an exemplary piece that well represents the multi-layered sense and meaning of our artworks. So much so that it also amazes us with its countless levels of interpretation. East vs West, feminism, feminicide, monotheism vs polytheism, to name but a few. The artwork is inspired by the works of both Caravaggio and Artemisia Gentileschi. We liked the idea of representing Judith with bare breasts, as appears to be Caravaggio's first intention. While Holofernes, cyclopean and dressed in a terrorist balaclava, represents, at least for us, unique thought disguised as terror. Our Judith performs an act of conscious liberation from a patriarchal value system and is dominated by a unique vision that does not accept diversity. Therefore, it’s an affirmation of multi-cultural and polytheist western thought in its Greek origin. This is as far as the reading "at a distance" of the whole work is concerned since when we enter into the narratives drawn here, the meanings pass on to other levels. We prefer not to provide too many keys to reading since we would like the "reader" to arrive at their own personal interpretation of the work.
