Arthur Tress's 1980 photograph, "Act II: The Voyage: They stumbled upon dark Altars hinting of strange Rites", features a doll covered in pins, set against a backdrop of a stage curtain. The doll, which appears to be fashioned from cloth, is centrally located within the stage, surrounded by two lit candles. Tress's photograph, an example of contemporary art, explores themes of ritual and the macabre, employing a theatrical aesthetic to create an unsettling and evocative image.
