Monstrous Surrealism: “And Then We Saw the Daughter of the Minotaur”
During a recent trip to NYC’s MoMA (Museum of Modern Art), I stumbled across a beautiful little piece of surrealist art by Leonora Carrington. The Surrealists often used imagery from Greek and other mythologies to express the fantastical and dreamlike aspects of the unconscious and irrational mind, and Carrington’s work is no exception.
