Creatures: Real and Imagined is a themed exhibition at Scope Gallery inside the Torpedo Factory Art Center. The show features ceramic and glass artworks inspired by both real animals and mythical beings, presenting creatures with personalities that may be charming, humorous, mysterious, naturalistic, or whimsical. Together, the works celebrate imagination, craftsmanship, and the stories people associate with the animal world.
