As Raias do Dragón

Tomás Hijo‘s graphic work is his personal tribute to the books and films that have always moved him and can be seen in the exhibition “Las Rayas del Dragón” (The Dragon’s Stripes). This exhibition showcases his work, ranging from the worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien (The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings) to Guillermo del Toro. The works are created using the linoleum engraving technique, which consists of carving a plate of linoleum, inking the highlighted areas with a roller, and pressing the inked plate onto paper. Most of them are subsequently illuminated with watercolor.
