THE DREAM OF REASON PRODUCES MONSTERS | 2016

The creation of sea monsters predates the period of great sailing: it goes back to the ancient world and perhaps still remains today in the imagination of seafarers. Initially described, they are drawn and copied, with minor changes, on maps from different periods, as well as on my embroidery.
