Hermoddities

Who are the Hermoddities? They look and look. Why not challenge them, confuse them? Are these creatures medieval or futuristic, children or old men? Hermetic oddities, hermaphrodites. Sometimes cute, sometimes cruel. Hermoddities is a lively collection of comics and oil paintings created by Toronto based artist Temple Bates. This collection of work spans over ten years and includes two collaborative stories drawn with Winnipeg artist Drue Langlois, formerly of The Royal Art Lodge. Within these pages exists an extraordinary world made up of furry oddities, anthropomorphs and omnipotent creatures. Why not pay them a visit? There will be no unpleasantness about it at all.
