Custom typography, risograph prints and complete identity design was created for the exhibition of photographer Márton K. Takács and poet Soma Kazsimér, which brings together the various works of the past years. There is a fine line between the real and the imaginary, the scientific and the speculative, the documentation and the fine art, or the field diary and the poem.

Cryptozoology is a discipline unrecognised (yet!) by the academic(?) sciences(?). Investigates animals/creatures whose existence has not been proven (yet!). “For three years, we have been researching local creatures, our Hungarian cryptofauna. They emerged from desolate landscapes, from the collective and individual unconscious: Werewolf of Putnok, Yeti of Mátranovák, hydrovampire of Kömörő, Istók Hany and sirens from the Horrid Valley. We watched them and they stared back at us.
