About this work

The print shows rough, blocky shapes in white and gray. A woman in the center stands firm. Around her, other figures twist and strain. Krstić used an old story here. The scene comes from a Greek temple carving. He turned those ancient shapes into sharp, modern lines. The woman’s pose feels strong, almost like a statue. Look up an artist who carved stone. Try Krstić, Velizar (1947-2020).
