THE SUBCONSCIOUS VISIONS OF JOE MacGOWN |
![]() The Antipodes Project was a collaborative art project started by Ben Tolman in 2006. It was an ongoing, evolving project dedicated to exploring the antipodes of our collective mind. The project was later continued by fellow artist Joe MacGown. |
this is just one of the project pieces artists were working on. There may be more completed in future.
Joe told me some time ago that there might be additional panels on this one as well - it is a growing work!

A Field-Guide to the Celtic Otherworld
Andy Paciorek is a graphic artist, drawn mainly to the worlds of myth, folklore, symbolism, decadence, curiosa, anomaly, dark romanticism and otherworldly experience. He is fascinated both by the beautiful and the grotesque and the twilight threshold consciousness where these boundaries blur. The mist-gates, edges and liminal zones where nature borders supernature and daydreams and nightmares cross paths are of great inspiration.
About the book:
Strange Lands is a deeply researched and richly illustrated information guide to the entities and beasts of Celtic myth & legend and to the many strange beings that have entered the lore of the land through the influence of other cultures and technological evolution.
At nearly 400 pages and featuring over 170 original illustrations, Strange Lands is an essential accompaniment for both the novice and seasoned walkers between worlds.
The following text from the foreword by Dr Karl Shuker ~
"Right from a child, I have always been fascinated by mythology and folklore, especially the rich corpus originating in the British Isles, and I have read very extensively on the subject. However, I can say in all honesty that Strange Lands is one of the most comprehensive single volumes on British mythological entities that I have ever encountered. Even Dr Katharine M. Briggs’s essential tome, A Dictionary of Fairies, universally acclaimed as the standard work on such beings, now has a rival in terms of the sheer diversity of examples documented.
And where Strange Lands effortlessly outpoints even that classic work is of course in its illustrations, which are truly breathtaking in their beauty, intricacy, and vibrancy" from the foreword by Dr Karl Shuker
