My Monster: The Human Animal Hybrid

The fantasy of merging animals and humans into one hybrid creature is explored in My Monster: The Human Animal Hybrid at RMIT Gallery from 29 June – 18 August 2018.

“What visual artists can do so powerfully is simultaneously take the viewer into the conflicted and internal world of the hybrid, while at the same time giving a face and identity to the hybrid within the physical but imaginary world,” Curator Dr Evelyn Tsitas, said.
