Description
2022, ink on paper, 27,8cm x 35,5cm

The background of the picture is an English story from the 18th century. It's about a man named Young Hunting of the same name, who tells the woman who bore him a child that he's in love with another, more beautiful woman. The woman persuades Young Hunting to get himself drunk, then come to her bedroom, or at least kiss her goodbye. The woman stabs the man to death. The woman throws Hunting's body into the river. When searchers start looking for Young Hunting, the woman first denies that she saw him, then claims that he left her place earlier. But when Hunting's remains are found, woman's guilt is revealed, and she is burned at the pyre.
I drew Nick Cave and PJ Harvey in the roles, who recorded a song called "Henry Lee" as a duet from the story.
