Fallen Stars

Vince's current work Fallen Stars, is inspired by the works of John Milton, Dante Alighieri, and Gustave Doré. His first intention was to recreate the engravings that Gustave Doré carved for both Milton's Lost Paradise and Danté's Inferno. He researched the book of Genesis and his recreations began to take on a different form, images began to take shape around events in Genesis. The more involved the story became the more he found a need to begin to write a story that would connect the various images together, incorporating legends and myths he was ready to begin creating images.The approach to the images he prefers is one that provides the viewer a front row seat to the event and the impression they are seeing it's recreation on aged papyrus paper, scrolls possibly uncovered from an archaeological site.
