Manotaurs — Sue Sommers

Manotaurs and Other Humanimals

It’s a Manotaur’s world. Manotaurs and Humanimals are my inquiry into the shadowy space in which people act according to the mandates of their bodies and reflexes. Manotaurs reverse the configuration of the Minotaur, so that the emphasis is on animal physicality, where it belongs. They are also about our control over the minds and bodies of other creatures.
