The Chimera
Prompt:In Greek mythology, a chimera is a fire-breathing beast made up of parts of a lion, snake, and goat. In a less fantastical sense, the world is full of chimeras - a fusion of multiple objects and the spaces that contain them forming brand-new entities. These chimeras retain characteristics of the things they're made up of but also gain new traits, both palpable and intangible. Photography can make these visible and reveal a literal or metaphysical reality that is influenced by the material and spiritual worlds surrounding us.
