Disarticulated Bestiary
Here is an image from the Disarticulated Bestiary. The piece in general is about the relationship people have with nature, and how fragmented it is (nature and the relationship). People have traditionally had a direct relationship with the place in which they live. Recently, in the 'nature writing' field, there has been a realization that rather than idolizing the distant and less accessible, we need to nurture our connections to the place where we live. Much of mythology and folklore is based on this direct relationship. That is what this specific part of the bestiary is about.
