The exhibition presents a narrative in 14 lino prints relating the rise and fall of a petty thug, a contemporary morality tale.


Grounded in local references and imagery, this exhibition incorporates pop and punk imagery with Byzantine art to create a contemporary morality tale in a narrative that references both recent local events as well as universal themes. There is an appropriation of recognizable visual elements of local popular culture and subverts them to challenge notions of belonging and alienation. 


The exhibition was curated by Michael A. Fenech and held at Heritage Malta premises, Valletta, Malta.
