Cnty Cryptid Crybz

Cunty Cryptids Club

Koha event/Ticketed

Cunty Cryptids Club is bringing to Tiny Fest 2024 what Mothman and Bigfoot bring to the land of the “normies” – a world of wonder and curiosity with undertones of weird and magic. The “Cnty Cryptid Crybz” is an interactive installation and pocket dimension that holds space specifically catered to Takatāpui youth. This ambient low-stimulation space will only be accessible via portal (a skux front-door re-vamp) and will take you on the adventure you’ve definitely never dreamed of having. Time to yank the human guise and return to your true form. You have found your Iwi. The creatures of the “Cunty Cryptids Club” welcome you with open arms. Tikanga of our Cryptid Cryb: To interact with the space, human skins are forbidden. Please wear a mask provided by the onsite community wardrobe, or bring your own! (We’d love to see your freak faces). This space is dedicated to Takatāpui so the safety of our queer tangata will be prioritised above all.

Friday – Sunday, durational

About

“Cunty Cryptids Club” was created by two multi-media creatives (Maia Wood & Lyss Cave) who have essentially only been collaborating on projects since they first met two years ago. The duo founded and created the first issue of the “Utu Ā Matimati” Takatāpui art magazine in 2022 and have since been pioneering what it means to provide “de-colonial art spaces” for Takatāpui youth. Their recent works consist of Clothing alteration/world building workshops for indigenous youth all around the motu.
