The Emissary Scrolls

6 February 2023TEZOSIPFS

'The Emissary Scrolls' features monographic illustrations on a continuous papyrus scroll, reminiscent of the traditional method of text preservation in antiquity. The series pays homage to 19th century virtuoso illustrators such as Adolf Giltsch, Ernst Haeckel, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, and Charles Darwin.

The artwork series is accompanied by a short story that explores the relationships between human crew members and an unfamiliar plant species on a newly found planet. These experiences are documented in journal entries, submitted at the end of each crew member's weekly shift. A few years into their mission, amongst other items, the crew obtains enigmatic scrolls, but they are in the dark about their significance and origin.

You can find the short story (and journal entries) under articles on FXHash. If there is interest, I am eager to continue publishing future chapters and artwork pairings :)

You are wonderful!
