The images you see here are concerned with mythological creatures from differentparts of the world.
BABA YAGA isa Scandinavian folklore, which describes an elderly woman, possibly a witch,who rides a broom and steals children for supper. Her house stands on the legsof chickens.
The KAPRE issaid to delve in the bamboo forests of the Philippines, luring humans with itsintriguing pipe smell.
Lastly, MAPINGUARI,the Brazilian red sloth is a giant creature with caiman skin and a secondmouth. He is relatively harmless,
All thesefascinating and image-evoking mythological beings are so far away from ourreality and yet are deeply intoned with our nature and our cultures.
