I Will Burn My Books

Upon reading “The Bloody Chamber” I made these as a metaphorical representation of prejudice as a monster. The wolf is a significant symbol of the animal nature of men, and women’s denial of her own animal nature. I continued the theme in Marlow’s “Dr Faustus” of the danger of books and knowledge.

Materials used; books and pages scrunched and torn, masking tape, wire, acrylic.
