Cesspool

Cesspool features 20 pieces of macabre art by Jay Hansen and Devin Francisco, accompanied by grotesque stories by Joe Knetter, MP Johnson, T.A. Wardrope, Tyler Hansen, Kenneth E. Olson and Roxie Hockensmith. A hooded man plays a twisted game of cards in a back alley. The parents of a demon baby are plagued by their brood's incessant whimpering. Death loses its meaning after a sick experiment by an old doctor. The silence of mimes cuts just as sharp as their blades. A ballerina twirls gracelessly as a toy laments its fate. Bungling teenagers attempt to dispose of a body after a threesome gone horribly wrong.
