Tim Head, The Furies, 2020

The Furies

Tim Head talks about his artist commission with Patricia Bickers

The Furies refers to the three goddesses of Greek mythology, the Erinyes, whose mission was to seek out and deliver terrible vengeance on those who had committed serious crimes and managed to evade punishment. Various figures currently in positions of power would be prime targets.
