"This was created to set the tone for this past year’s Theatre Bizarre. This then guides the direction of the year and becomes a catalyst for the performances and the stories being told. I was inspired by a series of Victorian era post cards that would use an illusion to manifest a portrait of a skull. This particular skull is a portrait of Zombo the Clown, a wanton god within the mythos of this construct.
It is part of an ongoing story and, more specifically, it was used to establish the theme for Theatre Bizarre 2014 which became The Illusionists’ Ball. Theatre Bizarre is a massive, interactive installation art piece that utilizes 8 floors of the world’s largest Masonic Temple, transforming the space into a universe unto itself. This is one story within that world." - John Dunivant
