Garden Observers
This piece is about the objectification of history. Greek and Roman statues were originally painted, but Renaissance sculptures interpreted statues whose paint had worn off as intentionally white. The renaissance era itself is now an artistic style as well.

Quick Death, Nothing Left
This watercolor painting is of a guillotine. The guillotine was used in France in 1792 but was inspired by similar devices, like the mannaia, used during the Renaissance.
