Polyphemus Me Respicit
2023-ongoing
In greek mythology, the cyclop Polyphemus represents a primal and monstrous force, embodying the harshness and indifference of the natural world, where death is an intrinsic part of life.
His one-eyed gaze confronts us, forcing us to reckon with the raw, untamed parts of ourselves, the primal urges and hidden instincts waiting to break free.

Polyphemus also reflects the brutal and unapologetic vulgarity of nature itself: indifferent, wild, and often grotesque in its cycles of creation and destruction.
In his single eye, we see not just a monstrous being, but nature’s relentless and unsentimental truth.
