专家说明

Tassaduq Sohail's Hell Series references the iconic visual language of Francisco Goya's Los Caprichos series from 1797 which depicted the perilous pitfalls of superstition and reliance on religion and the clergy. Sohail appears acutely aware of Goya's concerns, borrowing from this mythology of both the otherworldly and religious iconography. Sohail develops this language further; his works on paper do not depict demons on earth but a terrible realm threatening to enter our own reality.
