Detritus 2022

DETRITUS was shown alongside UNNAMED SAINT, RELICS and ILLUMINATION at The British School of Rome in March. The drawing resembles the graves found in churches across Italy and Europe. The bodies of the dead are carved in the stone floor, so it appears that they are lying there. The costume is rendered, surrounded by ears walnut fragments, beads and drawn scraps of text. This text is the same used in the film UNNAMED SAINT detailing the dismemberment and confusion of the unnamed.
