The Thirst
Release: 2025
Size: 12″x9″
Vampire bats are the stuff of myth and legend. Blood is their sustenance, which they draw from sleeping mammals. In fact, the bat’s hearing is adapted to detect the rhythmic breathing that accompanies slumber. What’s more, vampire bats use their powerful forelimbs to walk, jump, and even run. I suspect this adaptation allows them to approach their victims stealthily and make a quick getaway once they have fed.
The paper is 9 x 12 inches. Here is a link to the artist’s favorite picture frame.
The artist applies ink to a hand-carved wooden block.
And presses it onto Japanese-made Chiri paper.
