Wounderland: Surreal World Of Imagination, Nightmares And Taxidermy
My girlfriend and I are Mothmeister. We create Wounderland – a weird and wonderful universe. We portray anonymous, ugly masked creatures as a reaction against the dominant exhibitionism of the selfie culture and beauty standards marketed by the mass media.
We are passionate taxidermy collectors. That’s why our lonesome characters are, most of the time, accompanied by mounted animals. We reincarnate these dead critters into fairy tale figures by dressing them up like the Victorian taxidermist Walter Potter did. Our surreal inspiration comes from our own imagination, dreams and nightmares.

Disturbingly amazing. Would love a peak into this artists' brain...just a quick glimpse. Don't want to stay there too long
Brilliant, like Max Ernst's surrealism coming to life. Theatrical alienation, disturbing in a comfortable way.
I really love your work. there is something very touching about it. beyond the initial shock of the macabre images, there is a desolate vulnerability and even beauty about your subjects. it is a mix of Franz Kafka, Walter Potter, David Lynch, and Shelley's Frankenstein monster. Your photography is high art; so startlingly original and vividly imaginative.
There's a big chance that I'll not be able to sleep tonight, but I love the portraits and the consept. Awesome work!
Ok.. now I really need a ton of videos of cats, who are cute and alive, to compensate this! I love your pics, but hate them!
Terrifyingly modern, the best artistic surrealism photo work I ever seen
Amazing!! Beautiful and haunting. Your work should be the foundation of a film.
I think they're all Beautiful. I would love to have a few to hang on my walls.
I appreciate what you guys do. I can see your passion. It's actually quite beautiful as well as creepy. :)
Looks like some dude has a creepy sense of art. Will not be inviting him over for dinner.
I think this is the best creative I have seen so far this year. A truly beautiful universe perfectly visualized by its creators.

Fantastic (in both senses of the word.) You should do a calendar! I'd buy it!
Wow, out of this world :-D surreal imagery art at it's best <3 absolutely adore every image, AMAZING!!
I'm so glad I looked at these right before bed (not), they are really disturbing.
Truly unique! I cannot stop looking at the pictures. You are both incredibly talented. I hope the master of macabre, Stephen King sees these
The connection with the blood on the mouth of a mummy-looking creature and birds, i.e., the owl, etc. is interesting. Reminiscent of 1930s
The main reason that you make this beutifull art, make my day a lot better!!
Morbidly fascinating! I thought I had a vivid imagination, you guys take the cake.
Nice! Reminds me of pans labrynth and a Marilyn Manson video mashed with a bit of rob zombie. Make more!

Wow! it's artistic, creative and attractive, daring and I think we need to see things like this! Great execution!
I think its really amazing. The way their creativity works along with the taxidermy is very original.
Where do you live? Because I don't want to stumble onto your street next Halloween. Seriously, Great Job!!
Fabulous, but I won't be hanging any of these on my walls at home. I could glimpse one during a late night pee break and die of fright.
Not usually a fan of taxidermy but these are fantasmagorically beautiful.
I honestly don't know how to organize my thoughts. You've blown my mind. Stunning photography and effects and great costumes. I loved it :)
Its kinda scary but i really like them, the colours the background, just the detail alone is amazing :)
At a time that I am up in arms, this art work has made a happy place in my soul. Thank you for sharing and being beautiful.
The sixth picture from the bottom looks like an Ood from Doctor Who. Love all these masterpeices though!
There is a lot of artistic talent here, but this is a tad dark/morose for my taste.
Is there a "be nice" policy regarding comments? I NEVER have a nice comment about taxidermy. I found it awful and wrong. Nice pics, tho'
