Tag: Lusus Naturae

On October 14th, French artists 100TAUR and Hisham Echafaki will debut new works in their two-person exhibition, "Lusus Naturae" in London. Borrowing their title from a Latin phrase that describes any creature or specimen that defies classification, the exhibit will include a series of paintings, drawings and three-dimensional works that depict "freaks of nature". Their works feature fantastical hybrid creatures alongside some of the world's most bizarre members of fauna. Both 100TAUR's portrayals of mythical monsters in their dark world and Echafaki's intricate, pattern-filled works explore the human fascination with oddities or monstrosities along with our fragile relation with the nature.
