I would like to introduce you to the work of Sergio Suarez. the image comes from his site. For me, he is one of the engravers whose work captivates me the most with its size, its sobriety and its depth.

I could spend ages looking at all the detail and trying to interpret any hidden meaning/messages/symbolism in his work...They have an ancient (alien) civilisation feel

I also can't get over the scale of the prints 'Precession' at 96x336 inches and still classed as an ongoing work!

It's like being immersed in a temple or shrine with all the ceramic 'artifacts' in the installations, plus the monolith having echoes of standing stones/kabba/2001 Space Odyssey. It feels like he's creating his own mythology.... I can see why you're drawn to his work, thanks for sharing ๐Ÿ‘
