Frankenstein
Mary ShelleyMatt Potter / 🦣 mattpotter@c.imWhich after all, is the subtitle of Mary Shelley’s ‘Frankenstein’, a tale of a scientist who plays God looking for exactly this enlightenment. Wright’s light always reminds us that Prometheus brought fire to humanity, but that Lucifer is his archetype too - Bringer of Light.
