Stage Set with a Statue Of Saint George Slaying the Dragon 

Robert Caney created this stage set design featuring Saint George slaying the dragon, using watercolor on paper. Dominating the composition is the iconic image of Saint George, a symbol of good conquering evil. This motif transcends time, echoing in tales from ancient mythologies to modern narratives. Think of Perseus battling the sea monster to save Andromeda. Such stories tap into our collective consciousness, reflecting humanity's eternal struggle against chaos and fear. Even the dragon itself is not just a monster, but a representation of the untamed, the unknown aspects of our own selves. This struggle against the dragon is a kind of psychoanalytic drama being played out on stage, a cathartic representation of personal battles. It reappears in different guises across centuries, from medieval tapestries to contemporary film, each time carrying the weight of its symbolic past. Through time, this symbolic struggle resurfaces, constantly renewing its cultural relevance.
