Lego Dante’s Inferno by Mihai Mihu

LEGO is pretty typically geared towards children, however this gallery depicting the nine levels of hell in Dante’s inferno isn’t exactly kids material.

Each picture represents a level of hell including: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Anger, Heresy, Violence, Fraud and Treachery. Although each picture is pretty cool, none of them seem to show the special hell reserved for child molesters and people who talk at the theater

Mihai Mihu completed a series of creations depicting the 9 circles of Hell. While staying true to the theme of poetic justice served to the sinners, Mihai portrays the punishments through his own interpretations. The recurring architectural elements and portrayal of the sinners tie the scenes together in a way that’s easy for the viewer to transition through. In this short interview, the builder talks about his project and the individual circles of Hell.
