Trapped was born "in my list of must do Painting" when leaving New York City through the Holland Tunnel a couple years ago. My husband was driving and I was delighted by the reflections of lights in the ceiling and walls of the tunnel. Now you might be wondering, if this was a happy moment enjoying the lights, then why is the titled Trapped? Well, although the initial moment when entering the tunnel was a happy one, my reaction once I get inside tunnels that are under bodies of water is angst. I really dislike tunnels under water. Maybe there have been too many movies about water flooding these kinds of tunnels that works on me. Generally in the movies this occurs after some bad guy sets off an explosive (not a natural disaster), but none the less these movies have gotten into my psyche.'
