{"product_id":"creature","title":"Creature","description":"A beautiful collection of paintings, drawings and reflections on creatures, our constant companions, from the masterful narrative artist Shaun Tan. A creature does not necessarily represent one thing or another; it just is. A mysterious being in a mysterious world, much like you and me, trying to fit in, trying to be unique, or just trying to make sense of things as best we can, to exist.  World-renowned artist Shaun Tan turns his hand to the theme of creatures. The first thing Shaun ever drew as a child was a creature, and they are still at the heart of his work. This volume collects together unseen and stand-alone drawings and paintings, along with rich and thoughtful commentary from Shaun on his inspirations. Delving deep into the timeless allure of non-human creatures, and what they might tell us about our 'normal' human selves, this book is perfect for artists, writers and dreamers alike.","brand":"Walker Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40696384749653,"sku":"9781529510720N","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/files\/629e9a96-4fa3-41c2-bea1-5f83d8831d12.jpg?v=1695830155","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/creature","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
