Manfuego in the Land of ID

This is Id, the primal land of my psyche. Flamboyantly tall, Manfuego (fire man) stands among the forlorn fish gulping down sorrows. He represents my primitive impulses and psychic energy.

Black and white etching on clayboard of surrealist figure with sorrowful fish and rain and clouds.
