Inspired by ’The Masque of the Red Death’ by Edgar Allan Poe and created as a piece of Concept Art for a project during my time at Art University.

The figure is mysterious; the costume it wears intended to hide the limbs and gender of the person or creature beneath. The character is a bringer of death and disease. I decided to incorporate elements of plague doctors and WWI gas masks into the design; a contradiction in terms, as they sustained life, yet carry a fearful quality. The vulture and crow feathers are connected to birds that feast on dead flesh and thus symbolic of death.
