"Tragedy affects the plant world as it falls victim to the crime of consumption by homo sapiens. In Horror, the plants are presented in the style of a ‘noir’ detective story, drawn with the aesthetics, ornament, and repertoire of forms typical of Baroque art. Skull-like mushrooms are entwined into borders of slightly wilted acanthus and laurel leaves on an obligatorily dark background. There are tasteful funeral compositions of cooked cauliflower heads, cold-bitten Brussels sprouts, the last judgment of potatoes falling into flames, an epiphany of barrel-leaving sauerkraut and tomatoes bleeding with juice. Surrealistic and personified roots, bulbs, heads, tubers, and fruits, are all subjected to the most sophisticated torture in an almost hyper-realistic style. Horror is a tribute to modern graphics: a meticulous and decorative composition that emphasizes a love for elegance." - IBBY Honour List 2020
