Medea: A Noh Cycle

It's been a while since I last updated, so I thought I'd share some renderings I had to do for my "Theater of Japan" class final. I chose to design some costumes for one of the plays we read in class which was a Noh version of Medea, the Greek tragedy. It was an interesting challenge to synthesize elements of Greek and Japanese costume, but it was definitely a fun exercise! Here are two of the renderings, of Medea and Crusea.
