Procession of Blood and Coal

Procession of Blood and Coal envisions a haunting post-apocalyptic world, where charred landscapes are pockmarked with burnt and barren wells. Grotesque creatures stalk a bleak wasteland, and the remnants of a scorched and broken civilization. Fed by the aesthetics and culture of dystopian films from the 1980s, including Blade Runner and Mad Max, the work reflects the stark, grim futures these films portrayed—Blade Runner with its neon-lit, decaying urban landscapes and existential questions, and Mad Max with its chaotic, desolate wastelands and relentless fight for survival. Procession of Blood and Coal ignites a dialogue about the human condition, technology, and societal collapse.
