One of the starving raging bitches, a little puppy, accepted the eyeballs Lux offered without eating them. She is now the eyegiver pet.Ink on paper.
Lux, the eyegiver
Lux lives in a world where almost everyone is born without eyes. A random encounter will make her see.
The blind majority
The blind who is the source of eyeballs never wanted to see. Neither did the most of the naked turtles. There were eyes to spare is this part of the world where the majority are born eyeless. Ink on paper.
So that they want to see
Lux triggers desire on the blind by stripping bare and showing the eyeballs on her body as if it were a tray. Some succumb to the temptation of seeing and they fill their empty eye sockets.Ink on paper.
Interlude
A naked turtle and a woman who took the eyeballs gather for some tea. Both agree that this sight thing is not for everyone. Graphite on paper.
Third wheel
Lux is very sad. Her project of bringing sight to her part of the world is not having the success she anticipated. She crawls on top of a naked turtle’s back without noticing that she won’t let her be intimate with her partner.Ink on paper.
Rejected sight
A good friend of Lux ponders the advantages and disadvantages of sight. After a long deliberation, she decides against. She won’t reveal her reasons, but guilt makes her promise Lux she will help her to make more eye-less want to see.Ink on paper.
The raging blind
Word has spread, it says that there is a woman walking around giving eyeballs away in a silver tray. There are those who covet the eyes not to see, but to have something to eat. Lux already smells like eyes, and in an irresistible manner to a pack of starving black bitches. Ink and graphite on paper.
New boyfriend

The undertakers
Lux delivers the eyeballs to the white shrouded undertakers. Being an extremely polite people, the accept them. But when Lux leaves, they do what they do best: bury them inside the damp earth. For some reason, vision is not something they are interested in. Ink on paper.
Offering
Lux takes more eyeballs from the insides of the wonderful blind. She then sets on a journey on top of a naked turtle to offer them to the eyeless that live across the sea. Graphite and ink on paper.
Her husbands’s eyes

The naked turtles plain
In this land where a very few are born with eyes there is a wide plain where the naked turtles graze with no urgency. There was a time when they walked the world of people. They had their shells back then, but they lost them in a bad negotiation. Graphite on paper
The unfaithful one
One of the first things Lux does upon knowing that she has a source of eyeballs, is give a pair to her partner. Unfortunately for her, he loses his self-control and cheats on her on several times. Graphite on paper.
