Vitaly Moiseev

Vitaly Moiseev made a single large print titled The Millennium Ark around the year 2000. The image shows a crowded wooden vessel afloat on a dark sea, its hull packed with human figures, animals, and cargo under a star-filled sky. Every person and creature faces forward, squeezed shoulder to shoulder.

The print is stark and detailed, as if each face and fold of cloth were carved rather than drawn. Tap The Millennium Ark to zoom in and count the figures peering over the rail.
