Artwork Description:
A dialogue with Goya's The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters, this painting conjures a nightmare: owls, dogs, and inquisitors torment the body of a saint. In the clamoring dark, an owl screeches, its piercing cry splitting the silence as the saint's cold skin turns to marble beneath the viewer's gaze. Rendered in raw umber and white, the composition becomes a nocturne of terror and the persistence of darkness across centuries. It is within this chilling crescendo of sensory presence that reflection begins, weaving a tapestry of fear and contemplation.
