“[The Divine Comedy] has been translated dozens of times; now the work has received fresh visual interpretation in a grand 10-foot by 5-foot drawing by artist and professor Megan Vossler. Intrigued by her reading of Mary Jo Bang’s contemporary translation, Vossler was inspired to create Geothermia, her own vision of the classic allegory.

Not constrained by the concept of circles, Vossler has created a landscape that can be read from left to right, beginning with Limbo, where, Vossler says, ‘people who weren’t terrible, but didn’t accomplish anything good either, march endlessly through a grassy field of regret.'”    — “Fresh Version of Hell,” Macalester, November 14th, 2018.
