Nua Guas Dream

This is the third work in a series of three; entitled 'Children of the Rising Sun' it offers a portrayal of a privileged young boy, wandering in the atmosphere or environs of his cultural ancestors. He encounters a dragon like figure that is representative of the mythological demonic figures found in western illuminated manuscripts. These told of battles between good and evil, peopled by biblical characters and depicting the realms of heaven and earth. The spirit of Nua Gua who is a mythological figure, counsels him. She advises him to watch the ground on which he stands, lest he be sucked into vortices on the basis of an impetuous judgement.
