The New Arrival

The New Arrival

Upon initial inspection, the “New Arrival” presents itself as a labyrinth, a complex interplay of orange and gold barriers, dividing cerulean blue puddles set against a backdrop of lush green grass. Delving deeper into the compositions, one discerns that this maze is meticulously arranged into plots, revealing silhouettes of faces, hands, and feet. It becomes evident that the intricate layout symbolizes a bird’s-eye view of cemetery plots, each telling a unique story through varied emotional expressions – some marked by anguish, others by surprise.

At the heart of this evocative tableau, set against a lighter palette of colors, lies Frank’s “New Arrival,” portrayed with an intact body and an expression of unbridled glee. This central figure serves as a focal point, embodying the essence of the composition.

Remarkably, at the foot of the “New Arrival,” Frank strategically places a two-headed snake, a potent symbol embodying the duality of death and rebirth, as well as the delicate balance between good and evil in life. The serpent serves as a powerful reminder that, akin to the choices we make in life, we hold the capacity to either navigate our path with intention or, like those grappling in the throes of death, strive for success in the perpetual cycle of rebirth. 

In this nuanced composition, Frank encapsulates the intricacies of existence, using the symbolism of the maze and the two-headed snake to prompt contemplation on the perpetual dance between life and death, choices and consequences. The New Arrival stands as a testament to the artist’s ability to infuse depth and meaning into the visual tapestry, inviting viewers to reflect on the complexities inherent in the human journey.
