Where do strange creatures come from in our world, which are usually called otherworldly? The artist Andy Kiu believes that this is due to disruptions in the structure of the universe: forest demons accidentally fall out of their native parallel space and look at the viewer in confusion: "Where did this take me?" Melancholic paintings of strange creatures are part of a new exhibition, which opens in Seattle in a week.
The West is already starting to get feverish, for All Saints' Day, or Halloween, is just around the corner. The artist Andy Kehoe even specially decided to dedicate his exhibition to the good old evil spirits, invariably popular at this time of year.
In the world of Andy Kiu, eternal autumn and eternal twilight are the right time to meet brownies, field spirits and other spirits. "The boundaries between the worlds are thinning and blurring," says the artist, "and strange creatures begin to swoop in the neutral zone, back and forth, back and forth, occasionally wandering into our world." This is where illustrator Andy Kiu awaits them.
