Sepia silhouettes of two anthropomorphic bear characters wearing long cloaks. One waves farewell to the other in the foreground. The scene is framed by shapes of a dark, industrial machine. Cogs and giant pistons loom over the figures, rising up through mist and smog. Sepia silhouette of an anthropomorphic bear character wearing a long cloak, and carrying a wooden staff. The character is walking along a dirt path, seemingly towards a dark forest. In the far background an ominous industrial looking city rises out of smog. The scene is framed by shapes of a gnarly trees and suggestions of floating eyes. Sepia silhouette of an anthropomorphic bear character wearing a long cloak, and carrying a wooden staff. The character is cautiously passing through an entrance made of tangled trees and stone. A cave. In the far background an ominous industrial looking city rises out of smog. The scene is framed by shapes of a gnarly trees and shapes that could be floating eyes. Silhouette of an anthropomorphic bear character carrying a flaming torch. The character is holding the light up against a ceiling of stars. Are they in the sky or merely pinholes in the roof of the cave? Either way, night has fallen.

Silhouette of an anthropomorphic bear character standing in a cave entrance, looking out into the rain. They are holding a flaming torch that glows in the darkness of the cave. What look like stars can be seen shining on the inside of the cave ceiling. Dark rain drops falling across a bright, blank background. Some of the drops have a subtle sepia glow to them. Dark rain drops falling across a bright, blank background. Some of the drops have a subtle sepia glow to them. The raindrops intensify from the last slide, and now fall on more of a diagonal slant. An anthropomorphic bear character turns to face the viewer with a surprised expression. Large raindrops fall behind them. They are holding a flaming torch that glows in the darkness, glinting off the bear's fur and cloak. Text in the bottom right hand corner reads "Rain".

Folktale Week 2. Echo 🐻

@folktaleweek
#folktaleweek #folktaleweek2025 #folktaleweekecho #folktaleweekpals
A silhouette of a stylised bear character in a cloak. They are holding a flaming torch which partially illuminates them. They are in a dark environment with dots of light hanging above their head. They appear to be making a sound with their mouth. It is traveling off the right edge of the image (and will join up with the 2nd slide in this carousel 👉) (👉Cont from 1st slide) The bears voice is depicted by a shard of black knots and squiggles that cuts the image in half horizontally, leaving a dark, pin pricked cavern above and below. (Cont in 3rd slide 👉) (👉Cont from 2nd slide) This image depicts the opposite of slide 2. A shard of darkness, scattered with dots of light, intersects a chaotic mesh of haphazard lines that fill the page. The shard becomes more narrow as it reaches the right hand side of the image (and continues into the next slide 👉) (👉Cont from 3rd slide) A silhouette of a stylised bear character in a cloak. They are holding a flaming torch which partially illuminates them. They are in a light environment with swirling lines hanging all around them. The end of the dark shard from the previous slide can be seen entering the image from the left. The bear appears stoic in the face of this dark invader.

Folktale Week 5. Charm

#folktaleweek #folktaleweek2025 #folktaleweekcharm #folktaleweekpals
A hand of an anthropomorphic bear hovers over the open pages of a large book. An unrecognisable script can be seen on the paper. The image is divided diagonally by the bear's cloak. Behind the bear, rain falls outside the cave they are in. Dots of light illuminate the roof of their temporary shelter. A hand of an anthropomorphic bear rests on the open pages of a large book. An unrecognisable script can be seen on the paper. Shards of light are eminating from the bear's fingers and the book. Dots of light, and chaotic lines frame the image, heightening the feeling something magical and otherworldly taking place. A large explosion of light encapsulates the silhouette of an anthropomorphic bear wearing a cloak, and holding a staff. They are crouched on the ground, braced against the force of the explosion. A large book lies next to them on the ground, it's pages flapping wildly. Outside of the ball of light, almost horizontal rain intersects the dark trunks and branches of a forest of gnarly trees. Text in the lower right corners reads: "5. Charm"
