The Wolf in Tempelhoff from The Rape of the Sabine Women
A digitally constructed scene set against the stark, imposing backdrop of Berlin's historic Tempelhoff Airport, this work draws from Eve Sussman's cinematic reimagining of the classical myth of the Rape of the Sabine Women. The image captures a moment of tension and ambiguity, blending contemporary aesthetics with ancient narrative to explore themes of power, desire, and displacement. Sussman's use of digital chromogenic printing lends the work a vivid, cinematic quality that bridges the ancient and the modern.
