BIO:
Mothmeister
is the nonstop morphing alter ego of two artistic soulmates
based
in Belgium, home of surrealism. In their eerie Post-Mortem Fairy Tales, they
portray a series of masked, grotesque characters — often accompanied by
startling stuffed animals and a variety of curiosa from their private
collection.
Just
like in the Victorian era, when deceased loved ones were photographed
as
a memento for grieving relatives, Mothmeister immortalizes animals in
a
weird and wonderful fairy-tale world.

masks
