Under the Sun

By Tiger Lewis

Fine Art Photography by Judith Monteferrante.

‘Under the Sun’ is about love, and is another chapter in the continuing story of Audrey Wilde and Scott Theseus which began in ‘Gelatin Silver Print.’ Audrey Wilde is an American fine artist who is a leading figure in the visual art movement known as ‘common art.’ Her works explore the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, advertisement, and the common-every-day present in America. Scott Theseus is an American film director and screenwriter. He has produced and directed many award winning films and is best known for his distinctive visual and narrative style.

This book was created and presented by Audrey gifted to Scott as an heirloom to their love; it is a catalog of letters, photographs, and poetry, created during their years apart; collected, in Audrey’s words, so that ‘we who love remember love, see its flowers and the stars of its words and hear those faint in the gentle winds of our hearts; always, for it is never too late.’

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:

Its loveliness increases; it will never

Pass into nothingness.

Dear Reader,

You may know me as the artist and pop personality Audrey Wilde. You may also know my love, the American film maker, Scott Theseus, for his films The Golden Assam, White Silver Needles, and his latest, The Dragon’s Well. I met Scott in the summer of 1975, in Nahant, Massachusetts, when I was five years old. Our mothers were beach friends from Nahant Beach. Of course, I was too young and had no idea then that Scott was my one true love, or that years later, we would meet and build a life together.

Scott is my heart. I know that like I know the sun rising. There is no faking or magic, the sun is in the sky, I can
