I am thrilled to announce my collaboration with @fiddlersgreenzine on ‘The Riddle of the Sphinx,’ the newest addition to the Fiddler’s Green Pamphlet series! It was such a pleasure illustrating Clint’s enlightening article about the artists’ struggles likened to the Riddle of the Sphinx, and oddly enough, the article mirrored my personal creative struggles at the time while I was beginning preparations for my most recent shop re-opening. In Clint’s words: “The artist’s life presents those who dare take it up with a unique set of possibilities and challenges, among them a chance for renown long after the end of their days on earth. This illustrated essay explores the myth of Oedipus and the Sphinx to examine the perils all creative people face— and the ways they overcome them— on their path to mastery and the promise of this most treasured form of immortality.” 🌿 This is truly a meaningful read for all of us creatives who continually push ourselves to new heights and I am honored to be a part of it. The Riddle of the Sphinx leaflet is available for pre-order through @fiddlersgreenzine and will ship in May. It will also come with a gold foil sticker featuring my illustration of The Sphinx of the Magi, as described by occult philosopher Éliphas Lévi! 🌿 #poisonappleprintshop #fiddlersgreenzine #sphinx #riddleofthesphinx #oedipus #sketchbook #adriennerozzi #clintmarsh #immortality https://www.instagram.com/poisonappleprintshop/p/Bww-rbmHulV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ha5xktf5rgz4
