A handprinted lino print inspired by the Slavic folklore of Rusalka, a young woman who has met her untimely death and now lures men to their deaths in the watery depths. Though the Rusalka is often seen as a malicious spirit, she can be freed from her watery purgatory if her death is avenged.
Inspired by traditional Slavic lubok prints and Eastern European folk art, part of an ongoing series exploring Slavic mythology.
Handprinted using black oil-based ink onto A4 Kent paper. Printed area approx. A5.
