Three-eyed monsters, a serpent with eight heads, a monster cat, slimy fish creatures and a freaky bugged-eyed spider. Not to forget a kimono-clad woman with a stretchable head. The roster of folk horror creatures from ancient times is a grotesque - yet intriguing - one at Yokai Parade: Supernatural Monsters From Japan, an art exhibition on Japanese folk culture.
This exhibition, which is currently showing at the MIACC Gallery, Malaysian Institute of Art (MIA) in Kuala Lumpur until Dec 3, offers visitors an accessible introduction to the world of yokai.
