This series was part of a collective exhibition with the title of “Bodies”, set up at The Art Of Loving Yourself, in Mellieħa (Malta). The exhibition was open to the public from November 2024 till May 2025. Traditionally made in brush and in on bristleboard paper.
“Nobody Knows What We Do In The Dark” is a 3-meter wall comic about a nun who is haunted by her demon during the night, her own manifested desire and unaddressed sexuality. This is heavily inspired from the the prevalent problem of shame and stigma that is usually underpins one’s being due to a certain set of held beliefs.
The title of the series is loosely inspired from “In The Dark Nobody Can See What Happens”, an illustration piece by Ray Frederick Coyle (1885-1924) which was made for James Branch Cabell’s banned publication JURGEN: A Comedy of Justice (1919). It is a fantasy story prosecuted for obscenities involving indecencies at the time.
This sequence titled "Tempt" was published in the mcoi Annual 2025.
