An Odyssey of Our Own exists in the space between stone and mist. Myth and might.


An Odyssey of Our Own is a photoshoot inspired by Homer’s Odyssey and investigates hero mythology. The cyclops Polyphemus is surrounded and blinded by Odysseus and his men, disguised as sheep. Who is blind, the sheep, the cyclops, or the hero?
