Parables and myths guide us, but where do they come from and how are they transferred? Old to young? Rich to poor? In a language we no longer speak?

Hi Tima,
Really elegant piece and brilliant detail! And so true. A world and language that we all know … but it’s origin lost and unknown.

I like :0) You touched on the same idea I had….all the anonymous works out there, be it a parable, a poem or artwork!

Tima, what a profound work. Very deep and symbolic from the back of the mind, like a forgotten language a story handed down on cold nights in front of warm fires. So moving and mysterious too.

Welcome Tima! this strikes me as a scroll piece with Greek players lending credibility and stature to the documentations history.

I really like this Tima! I’ve been working a lot with asemic writing, so this really resonates for me – the anonymous theme was a perfect application! The figures are wonderful as well!

I agree with everyone else…also, I really love the effect the red and green have on the piece as a whole.
