To most individuals lemons are the symbol for all things sour, however, for the eternal optimist, the lemon is an icon of hope and promise.  In Erin Sotak’s invented mythology, it is a prize greater than gold to sailors, a secret misplaced, forgotten hope that is eternally waiting to be found.

Stowage is a component of the artist’s larger ongoing quest.  The history of the lemon and specifically the Sfusato Amalfitano, a type of lemon unique to the Amalfi coast of Italy, are used by the artist to interweave connections between La Bocca and the ASU Art Museum.

Order a glass of lemonade next time you are at La Bocca to get an edible connection to the mythology.
