Physical Description
No. 21 of a series of 27 prints. A simple, two-tone palette. Standing at the bottom of a winding staircase, a female figure with a three-eyed feline head, gestures with her left arm, which is also feline in appearance. Above her, floating against a black background, are various images including a pair of hands with eyeballs in their center, a disembodied human head, a woman subduing another person, four pairs of human legs topped with a brain-patterned material, and a woman in glasses holding a long, thin, curved implement. In the lower-right corner, a person with bulbous eyewear is seen contemplating.
Sultana's Dream was printed and published by Durham Press in 2018.
