Description

Physical Description:

No. 16 of a series of 27 prints. A simple, two-tone palette. A radiating sun with the image of a woman’s profile, holding up one hand with an eyeball on the palm, shines down upon a fantastical cityscape. A crystallized, dome-like structure dominates the center; while Moorish-style archways descend into the center of the image. Large plants, sprouting hands with eyeballs on the palms, reach into the sky.
Sultana's Dream was printed and published by Durham Press in 2018.
