Marco Mazzoni is an Italian artist, he looks at the connection between feminity and nature in a similar way to Angela Carter.
His work, I feel is very close to how I feel about Carter's writing. I love the dark tones and the natural feeling and moods that are associated with his work. Despite the flowers and creatures often being associated with brighter and happier emotions, I like the switch of this and the high key tones as it brings emotions of fear and an almost sadness.
I'd like to try and explore similar themes in my printed pictures book, I'll need to work out how I'll be able to create a similar message and emotion with just 2 colours in the printing process.
