Inspiration?

"It appears that the tradition of men dressing up as wild animals and monsters, which dates back to neolithic times and shamanism, is still very alive nowadays. The mythological figure of a “wild man” represents the complicated relationship humans have with nature and life and death cycles."

 I don't know is anyone up for making costumes. Maybe let's ask the local community of some legends connected with the area of Georgia we are going to? I think it would be interesting. But maybe it's more a job for an ethnologist. Maybe I associated this "dressing up as wild animals and monsters" with "creatures" in the name of our project. Or maybe I just wanted to show you these beautiful costumes.
