To boldly portray The Odyssey, the most well-known poem of ancient times, only with images may initially appear to be a contradiction.

This tale describes the adventures of a hero, renowned not only for his legendary cunning, but also for his mastery of words and language, his ability to narrate his own great feats and to convince and captivate whomever he encountered, be it mortal or divine.

"Homer's Odyssey is  told using sequential art, with powerful images, a striking narrative and no dialogues. The images offer a poetic interpretation of the Homeric tale, keeping all the fascination and meaning of this masterpiece .

My intention was to create a purely visual reading that flows like a long dream and can be enjoyed with eyes wide open. Homer's Odysseus is at the same time a hero, and a man that wants Nothing more than to return home, to be reunited with his wife, son and land.

A surprisingly modern character, an archetype for many of the antiheroes we commonly relate to nowadays."
