Description
The expression "It's all Greek to me" - meaning something is not understandable - seems to have started - in English anyway - with Shakespeare in 'Julius Caesar.' I have used the Greek cyrillic alphabet in my mixed media traditional collage, even in the lace curtains, hoping that this arbitrary text doesn't mean anything questionable. Parallel exprssions are found in many other languages, several describing Chinese as the most difficult.
The image is based on a photograph taken on a blissful holiday on the Greek island of Kos in the Aegean Sea. There are cats everywhere.
