Pere Formiguera Cronos !!top!! • Extended

Cronos is a conceptual photography and mixed-media project created by Spanish photographer Pere Formiguera (1952–2013) in collaboration with writer and artist Manuel Cusachs-Ferrer. The work is presented as a pseudo-archaeological, pseudo-scientific dossier documenting a fictional creature, an "unknown zoological specimen" named Cronos .

The project spans photographs, X-rays, anatomical drawings, field notes, charts, and a written "journal" detailing the discovery, study, and eventual mysterious death of the creature. It is a masterful exercise in verisimilitude—using the visual language of science to create an utterly believable fiction. pere formiguera cronos
