Aschenputtel


Pencil, pen and oils on cartridge paper. I was reading Grimm's fairytales, and also Angela Carter's 'The Bloody Chamber', which focuses on bringing out the latent sexually violent content of fairytales. Freudian psychology was also an interest of mine, and I applied the Electra complex theory to the German version of Cinderella called 'Aschenputtel'.

Scans done at different intervals during the process - from pencil, pen, to coloured
