Kronos

Size: 30,3 x 22,6 cm

Materials: Watercolour on watercolour paper

The eighty-fourth symbol is a symbol for Kronos, the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans in Greek mythology. He overthrew his father and ruled during the Golden Age until his own son Zeus overthrew him and imprisoned him in Tartarus. Plutarch believed that Kronos was an allegory for time, a personification of time itself. The texture in the background was created using a combination of masking fluid and salt.
