Overview

Once upon a time, under a different name, Dross was an artist associated with the Vienna Secession, similar in subject matter, style, recognition, etc, to Egon Schiele. These days, he's taken to filmmaking, and is likely to be recording something at just about any given moment. Most of the footage he collects eventually turns into bizarre (& often rather sexual) short films. They're not horror movies, exactly, and yet, somehow... they're all horror movies.

  • Rib Hollow - An immersive multimedia art installation (available autumn '17 only in EW01). See a preview of related images if interested.
