A stunning celebration of myth, folklore, and storytelling from around the world. Cassi Bakotic’s intricate artwork, inspired by the bold, graphic tradition of linocut printmaking, brings legendary creatures and figures to life in striking white against a vivid blue ground. A captivating visual journey connecting cultures and centuries.
