VOL. I — THE OLD COUNTRY

Twelve figures from before the churches.

Before the saints. Before the witch trials. Before the names we still remember.

Before the saints. Before the witch trials. Before the names we still remember.

These are the figures left in the margins — pre-Christian spirits, Slavic gods, Alpine demons, Dutch reminders of mortality. The folklore Christianity tried to bury and never quite managed to.

Twelve designs. Hand-engraved. Printed on heavyweight garment-dyed cotton. Each one rendered from public domain manuscripts, woodcuts, and folk art predating the centuries that called them sin.

Vol. I is where this imprint begins.

GOD IS WEARING BLACK.
