Creepy Bunny Returns
|
A year after his initial debut in Newtown, Creepy Bunny returns to Baobab for another season of dark tales and mysterious occurrences.
Creepy Bunny is a character conceived by Tom Box and photographed by partner Kate Logan. He is a sinister, dark suited rabbit-man; a human/animal chimera, fluffy and dangerous, cute and creepy. You may notice him in the corner of your eye, lurking in the spaces between light and dark. He won’t be found in your bedtime stories, but may cameo in some dark recess of your mind. This series of photographs is a continuation of the macabre holiday snaps captured in the first Creepy Bunny series. Once again he stands as an observer, overlooking the remains of society. |
Throughout the last year he has travelled far and wide, through somber seasons and landscapes of discontent. Derelict buildings, empty wastelands and forbidding tunnels are all tourist locations for this anthropomorphic character. In some images he stands in the distance as if to say ‘who was here?' In others he is closer to the lens, posing in the scene, saying ‘I was here’. It is the conjoining of the familiar images we see in our family albums, with the wide depopulated emptiness that makes Creepy Bunny both unnerving and intriguing. Why is he there and where did everybody else go?
