BEFORE THE DOGS (ATE YOUR HEART)

 

 

In Greek mythology young Aktaion hunted daily in the woods with his fifty dogs. Unwillingly, one day he saw Diana bathing in a spring, along with her Nymphs. The goddess became angry, transformed Aktaion into a deer so his own dogs devoured him.

Inspired by Pierre  Klossowski's 'Le Bain de Diane', these works explore various aspects of this story.
