Wereman, Lycanthrope (Occasionally Human). Homo homini lupus the ancient Romans used to say. Meaning man is a wolf to other men. Underlining the level of brutality some men will resort to, in order to have their way against other men. In this painting, part of the shape shifter series, the artist uses a found photograph to create a portrait of a lycanthrope in the moment of his transformation. According to legend a lycanthrope is a man who occasionally (on full moon nights) will transform himself into wolf and wreck havoc. Reflecting on what the Romans used to say and ‘inspired’ by contemporary events the artist turns the table on its painting’s protagonist and transforms him into a wereman; a wolf that occasionally shown its human side and becomes a man. The painting was selected as Painting Of The Day on the Contemporary British Painting website and social media outlets, it has also been shown at Art Prague Fair 16 and at ‘Fever Dreams’ the artist’s personal exhibition at Dark Matter Gallery in Prague in 2017.
