Coreyartus ImageryThis image is inspired by Hänsel and Gretel, the famous German fairytale popularized by the Brothers Grimm. I wrote a blog post about this image that you can see here: https://coreyartusimagery.com/blogs/musings/what-hansel-and-gretel-tell-us
In short, I find the story to be one of resilience and bravery in the face of abuse. It teaches us that we can solve our problems if we work together and care about each other, even when the enemy tempts us with moments of weakness, and then imprisons and enslaves us and tries to eat us. A good thing to think about.
Even children overthrew the tyrant. Why can’t we?
