THERE WAS ONE THING that Mary said that really bothered me. She made a comment about the tumble weeds after they "died". As tormented and crazy as I thought she was from the first impression, I never once figured that she would just agree scientifically that these weeds died. For someone that seems like she has trouble letting go of her persona, her past, her struggles....someone who believes that she has been tomented by ghosts... someone who apparently believes in the afterlife, whether it is real or just an expression of existential realism, refering to the tumbling weeds as "dead' bothered me.
Who says the tumble weeds are dead? I feel like the act of them breaking off and becoming kinetic sounds like they are just starting their secondary life. A life that is meant to be used to travel the winds and traverse the terrain. A "life" that is still vibrant and full of purpose and promise.
I don't know if anyone else noticed...but in all of her pieces that involved human form...there were sewing pins stuck through the heads or neck. Is there a reason for this? Is she trying to kill or cut off the life line? Are these representations of pieces of her life that she wants to forget or disown?
