Have you ever seen a photo of a planet made entirely of living flesh? Or an insecthuman hybrid that can control minds? Or a thousandfootlong sea serpent that emerges in Iceland every year? These images might look like they come from some longlost paranormal case file. But this is actually the work of the brilliant artist and worldbuilder Eduardo ValdésHevia, who has spent the last several years bringing to life a menagerie of nightmares.

Brought to life through a combination of old photographs and new elements, ValdésHevia’s art merges history and the surreal, with images that feel like they come directly from classified historical documents. The artist creates standalone images as well as richly detailed series with dense, interconnected lore. So, for this entry into the archive, we’ll investigate the monsters and madness of these dark case files.

Now, prepare yourself for the terrors of ValdésHevia…
