This drawing is part of the literal “collateral damage” that I explored. It depicts an ecstatic character that asserts dominance over religion and the cities below them. To the left is a deformed character that symbolizes the crimes done towards humanity by Nazi Germany. The airship in the middle region of the drawing is a nod to the LZ 129 Hindenburg.
I went on a small excursion into the forest to take pictures that resembled fungal growth. This was done to acquire a physical feeling of that specific part of nature as it was a central part of an essay I was working on at that time.
This picture was taken during quarantine or at least whilst most of the world was in heavy quarantine. I was fortunate enough to be allowed to spend time outside and I felt this picture represented the feeling of something unknown.
