Turtle and lizard

 




An original piece from the series “Ancient beasts”, ink on paper, 30 x 21 cm, 1999.

The medieval illustrators represented animals that they had never seen, described by others, or derived from mythology. This generated monstrous creatures. From here comes the idea of a common set of animals, which are deformed with the help of redundant decorative codes. To simulate the ancient miniatures, I use ink and uniform color areas.
