Description
Inspired by the works of Dali, Shakespeare, and Tolkien, Dutch artist Johfra Bosschart combined elements of fantasy, mythology, astrology, and religion to create stunning surrealist paintings. In his Zodiac series, Johfra intertwined the traditional elements of the Western zodiac with mythological imagery to create paintings that are rife with hidden symbolism and meaning. Are those the scales of Maat weighing the heart and the feather in Libra? Why are cliffs featured so prominently in Capricorn? This calendar’s 12 signs of the zodiac, painted between 1974 and 1975, invite us to question every detail-in Johfra’s work and in their relevance to our own lives.
