zephyrus and the harpies feud over chloris



in this narrative, all is personified 
On an Island, in the far west of the whole land, Boreas, Zephyros, Notos and Euros star as the invisible troublesome anemoi causing havoc and gusting over Chloris. They were no match for Lucia Mocnay starring as the harpies, where she whirlwinds back and is able to keep Chloris for herself. Also starring fox Miss Flora Herbarium (made by Lucia Mocnay) as Chloris. Playing with themes of anthropomorphism and here inspiring greek mythological hybrid, the harpy, in a modern day version of a tale. This set of photographs took us to the western suburbs of Victoria, to a destroyed and abandoned bluestone building in the beginning of spring.

anthropomorphic ancestry


update on our anthropomorphic ancestry project

Lucia Mocnay (~conjured creations~) and I are working on a collaborative project. Once she finishes her fox characters, together we stylize a photo shoot. Lucia plays a character along with her fox creation. With the first 4 foxes we decided to shoot using only a backdrop as to not take too much away from the characters and allow for introduction. Now both the foxes and Lucia are going to have adventures outside in a setting where a story is able to take place. The project is about themes in anthropomorphism and art and it's taking us to wonderful places both on location, imagination and our history as humans and animals. Underlying themes such as magic, reincarnation and unexplained phenomena are also present in the project. The beauty of working on something like this is that it also allows for the viewer to partake on the journey with us and evoke the viewers own perception of what they are seeing.
