SHIP OF FOOLS II After Sebastian Brandt by Onnik, Etching on paper, 2023

Selected for the 2025 London Art Biennale, Bulgaria. Etching on paper, 2023. 89x69cm.

I’ve always wondered where our world is heading. So I decided to make three graphics based on Sebastian Brant’s satirical poem The Ship of Fools. Sebastian Brant (also Brandt; 1457/1458 – 10 May 1521) was a German humanist and satirist.He is best known for his satire The Ship of Fools. The presented graphic, which is the second in a cycle of three works is made in etching, aquatint and dry point technique, printed on Hahnemühle Fine art paper in an edition of 10 prints.

MFA degree in National Academy of Fine Arts, Sofia, Bulgaria. Participated and awarded in many exhibitions and graphic biennials and triennials all over the world.
