"Suffocated: Tales of Struggle and Survival" In the midst of chaos and despair, these captivating lithographs depict haunting moments where lives were suffocated by unforeseen circumstances. From the harrowing events of World War I to unexpected disasters, each image reveals a different facet of human endurance. "The Thirteen Days Of Leandre" unveils the tragic fate of German soldiers asphyxiated by their own poison gas, blown back into their trenches by an unforgiving wind. A stark reminder of the horrors endured during this devastating conflict. In "Death in the Mine, " we witness miners trapped deep underground, struggling for breath amidst toxic fumes. Their courage shines through as they fight against time to escape the clutches of darkness. Amongst these dark heroes emerges a tale from Casteltermini's burning sulphur mine. Braving unimaginable danger, they rescue those trapped within its fiery depths - an act that defies death itself. A glimmer of hope arises when border soldiers discover a gap in an avalanche blocking access to a tunnel. The air rushes back into their lungs as they navigate through treacherous terrain towards salvation. Unpredictability strikes even in seemingly harmless settings like an equestrian circus waiting in Liege. Two pythons slither free from their crate after a show, evoking fear and panic among onlookers who find themselves caught in nature's grip. "The Invisible Danger" lurks around every corner - unseen yet potent enough to claim lives without warning. This lithograph serves as a chilling reminder that dangers can manifest unexpectedly and leave us gasping for air. Across continents lies another tragedy etched onto canvas; Italian miners half-asphyxiated in a burning Illinois mine during one of America's great disasters, and is through resilience and unity that survival becomes possible amidst such dire circumstances. The disaster at Sofia's military arsenal unfolds before our eyes - flames engulfing structures, choking the air with smoke.
