Lino print on cotton rag paper.

This series of four prints depicts a bird being impaled by a worm, with each quarter containing a variation of red ink on the image. Humanity is deeply contradictory, life itself is paradoxical: joy would not mean anything without the absence of it, life would not mean anything without death. Similarly, truth can be contradictory – does the early worm get the bird, or vice versa? Or are they both? Simultaneously each other’s prey, both dead and alive?

These images represent the contradictory nature of the world, and the uselessness of overthinking. The ornate pattern also depicts this, as no matter the perspective, it will all still connect.
