ECHOES OF HYSTERICUS is an exhibit of paintings by @artgroup_607 exploring hysteria and ancient screaming sculptures.
From @artgroup_607:
Explore the archaeological renderings of mythical sculptures believed to have adorned various areas of the ancient temple.
Observe: Screaming Figure: Sculpture No. 3, Entrance Staircase, illustrating a mythical guardian thought to have stood at the temple's entrance, possibly serving a protective function.
Encounter: Screaming Figure: Sculpture No. 5, Inner Chamber, portraying a figure believed to have been located within the temple's inner sanctum, possibly symbolizing a deity or significant mythological entity.
Study: Screaming Figure: Sculpture No. 2, Altar Passage, depicting a sculpture likely positioned near the passage leading to the temple's altar, potentially representing a ritualistic or ceremonial aspect.
Each painting offers insights into the speculative reconstruction of Hystericus's ancient architecture and the role of the sculptures within its religious and cultural context.
