Also from the Medical Trials of the Saints series, "St Sebastian, Paion" was featured in the award-winning CAN Journal as the recipient of the NE Ohio CAN Journal Prize from the 2019 Juried Exhibition at Waterloo Arts in Cleveland, OH. Notable Cleveland artist Douglas Max Utter wrote, "The dark paintings of MANDEM have an almost cinematic power...creating personae that bleed across emotional and historical frontiers...MANDEM’s paintings are, plainly, hard to forget." This feature is in the current Fall, 2019 issue of CAN Journal, available in print or online at https://bit.ly/2MIW8mN.


Earlier this year, "Artemis and Athena, Psychopomps" from this series also took Best in Show at the 10th Annual May Show at the Gallery at Lakeland in Kirtland, Ohio.
