Mythological Menagerie - Ceryneian Hind

In a series of seamlessly looping 3D animations, contemporary artist Jonathan Monaghan reimagines mythological creatures from the labors of Heracles in a surreal blend of ancient mythology and modern technology. Each animation features iconic beasts like the Ceryneian Hind, the Erymanthian Boar, the Cretan Bull, and the three-headed Cerberus adorned with surveillance cameras and elements of opulent gold. Monaghan creates a new mythical menagerie as these beings roam among environments of contemporary technology.

In "Mythological Menagerie: Ceryneian Hind", the legendary deer with golden antlers is depicted with the head of surveillance cameras, symbolizing its elusive nature. In the animation, the Hind gracefully traverses a modern fulfillment center. The Hind embodies the pursuit of beauty and the human quest for the extraordinary.
