This book was published on the occasion of the exhibition HYBRIDS Composite creatures from fables, myths and legends
9/6/2024 - 17/11/2024 in cultuurhuis / Art Centre de Warande, turnhout - België/Belgium.

"Fantastic creatures from myths, sagas and legends are often hybrids, composed of different, often very varied animals. Frequently, they also appear to be a mixture of humans and animals. Such representations and descriptions of hybrid creatures occur in all cultures around the world and have existed since ancient times. This publication reads like a wondrous journey into a grand Wunderkammer."
