Help yourself to some gorgeous nightmare fuel

Remember how you felt the first time you follow the Pale Man from Pan ’s Labyrinth plunk those small red eyeballs into hispalm sockets ? That ’s sort of what calculate at the work of Caitlyn Hackett is like — it ’s an experience that is at once enamour and disconcerting , impinge on a double-dyed correspondence that appeals to our most pathologic curiosities .

The New York creative person describe her illustration :

I am fascinated by the way in which the great unwashed personify or depersonalize animals ; the way in which the human panorama of an animal can render it into an object of public utility , or a trustworthy associate , or a monstrosity , disregardless of that animal ’s reliable nature . It is this dichotomy that I aim to disclose in my work , the ‘ real ’ animal versus the abstractionist animal as it exists in the human mind , an beast mutated by social concept and mythology alike . The symbolical substance attributed to dissimilar specie correlate directly with how they are deal in the real world ; which creatures are protected and which are not , which are vituperate , which are adored , and which are cut altogether . Whether or not the symbolic significance humans has assigned any give species has any relation to reality is not important to most people , it ’s the symbolism that matters , the ability to utilize the animal to suit our own needs , to extend to our bottom line . We use the bound between ‘ us ’ and ‘ them ’ to determine an animal ’s central Charles Frederick Worth , all based on our own desires . It is this process of transforming the fauna that inspires my body of work , and founder it its often dark undercurrent .
