  The Human Condition

These woodcuts reveal the deception, vengeance and carnage personified through mythical gods and beasts (such as the three-headed Cerberus and the flying Furies).

The allusion to 21st century societal and natural tremors around the world is apparent, and is encapsulated in the desperate loneliness of Alzheimer’s and related dementias.
