LOVECRAFT: DRAWING AGAINST LIFE
Lluís Bosch, 2023
The work "Lovecraft: drawing against life" is a project that wants to offer other ways to approach the illustration of the stories of the Providence writer. It is not about capturing monsters, but human beings submerged in horror. The initial question was: how would Francisco de Goya have drawn Lovecraft's stories?
