This is a project called “Paradise Now” by the magically delicious Krištof Kintera, an installation artist of some note. He rides and charges around in Berlin on these magical beasts, here caught several times unawares in their natural and unnatural habitats. Each of these beasts is made of zinc coated steel and could be coming your way soon!

Actually they’re probably staying in Berlin, as that is their natural habitat, and I don’t see any world-level plate shifts coming any time soon. Where have all the buffalo gone?

These metal monster represent a nature cum metal situation. When the humans of the world find the need to turn natural bits of the Earth into roadblocks, surely there will be consequences. If there’s such a thing as magic in the world, the magic of nature even turned up to 11, there will be metal turned animal like these. They will run rampant and unhinged, taking whatever their hive mind tells them! And they don’t even need to eat grass or anything! Unstoppable.

That said, these do look like a lovely installation piece that I’d love to have in my future museum that maybe I’ll someday have. Or we.
