"Inner Oz" is a fantasy illustration
project realized by Giorgio Finamore between 2012 and 2013.
It's an emotional homage to Lyman Frank Baum and the characters he created.
This is an inner, psychological interpretation with dark and phantasmagoric
traits,
in which Dorothy, no longer a child and now in a particular moment of
her life, remembers her adventures;
the protagonists, loosely based on the first three books of Oz,
are like a short circuit and a sweet dark shock in her mind.
