Об авторе
Alex CF is an illustrator, author and sculptor. His work revolves around animal mythology, political fantasy, having written the environmental epic, ‘The Books of Orata’ — ‘Seek The Throat From Which We Sing’ and ‘Wretched Is The Husk’ and the illustrated companion book, ‘The Orata, A Compendium Of The Cultures And Creeds Of Naa.’ His personal and political aspirations are explored further in ‘The Book Of Venym, An Egalitarian Demonology’ — an illustrated anti-fascist occult grimoire, a call to arms in the defence of nature and against humanities proclivities for violence, told through striking illustrations of benevolent demons and deities. In ‘An absence: A scientific approach to a haunting’ Alex explores a novel take on the haunted house genre, pitting cutting-edge science against the supernatural. ‘Punks in the willows’ is a love letter to the punk rock community, told via adorable anthropomorphic animal punks. ‘Raccoon starts a band’ continues this concept, where Alex pays homage to the many genres of punk music and the scene that helped raise him. Alex has been involved in DIY punk, animal rights and alternative culture for much of his adult life, and is the vocalist in a number of bands, where he creates self-contained narratives and artwork inspired by his favourite authors, and ideologies shared within the band. He was the vocalist in Fall of Efrafa, and is currently involved in many musical projects.
