Behind The Artworks: Dez Dare - Perseus War (2023)

When I was planning 'Perseus War' I wanted the themes within it to move from the more cerebral idiosyncrasies of society covered in 'Ulysses Trash' to the visceral. 'Perseus War' is about the violent struggle that the universe and all within it has to survive. The daily pressure of existence, the beauty in the destruction left by the way and the sweet solace of understanding we have no control. Perseus the destructor is the figure adorning the cover. Humanities guiding force through the violence of life, guiding us towards the sirens from the void.
