Mythology - Venus and Adonis Photograph - Limited Edition of 10

The series is inspired by scenes taken from stories of the Greek mythology, and are combined into a futuristic cold world. These pieces display the destruction of the ancient world with its beautiful and glorious architecture by new age technology and progress. By taking pastoral landscapes filled with architectural remnants of glorious ancient empires and contrasting them with tied up animals representing the mighty gods in all their glory, these scenes represent the changes between the ancient world and the reality we live in nowadays, in which the mighty nature is being trampled by technology and progress, threatening the existence of our beautiful planet and the legacy we leave for future generations. Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love, mourning her lover, Adonis, who died at the hands of her consort, Ares, who was jealous of him, whilst the former was disguised as a boar. At the site of his death, red windflowers grew from his blood.
