I really like the first one, however it looks like Medea is sending the pain instead of receiving it like the second one you have. The colors of the first one are great and feel greek.
I agree with Meagan—fantastic work. Very intuitively archaic. Jessica, remember when we spoke about your effort to express pain, it was not working, so you worked with your first composition, developed it to a very unexpected turn. You trusted your artistic instinct against all the preliminary literal notions, and as a result—an incredibly creative composition. If I didn't know your previous concept, I would say that this poster is about Medea The Sorceress, turning her weakness into an unlimited (by any ethical norms) power.
According to Wikipedia, A sorceress is a woman who practices sorcery. This word is a synonym for witch. There are several kinds:_A Venefica sorceress was a Roman woman who used drugs, potions, and poison_In fiction and myth, a sorceress is a kind of female magician. The Greek mystery religions had strongly magical components (magic powers), and in Egypt, a large number of magical papyri, in Greek, Coptic, and Demotic, have been recovered. These sources contain early instances of much of the magical lore that later became part of Western cultural expectations about the practice of magic, especially ceremonial magic. They contain early instances of:__the use of "magic words" said to have the power to command spirits;_the use of wands and other ritual tools;_the use of a magic circle to defend the magician against the spirits he is invoking or evoking; and_the use of mysterious symbols or sigils thought useful to invoke or evoke spirits.[1]___I only think that Public Theater is not resolved and typography is too light weight and casual compared with a very strong image.__Olga
