Akil Tawnybird, a wingless Gryphon in his living room. By day, Akil works as a technican and describes himself as a part-time Gryphon. Of fur-suiting he says” You can get out of your shell more because no one knows you. It’s just a laugh, a bit of fun”
From the series” At Home With The Furries”
Furries are people who like to have fun on a regular basis. Throughtout the year furries will dress up in costume or fur-suit as anthropomorphic characters from cartoons, comic strips, myths and videogames. The people inside the suits are by day IT workers, engineers, mortgage brokers, lecturers or fursuit makers. Most furries have an affinity with animals but also love to role-play or fursuit as a form of escapism. Over the course of a few years, I gained the trust of the furry community in the UK and some of their members allowed me to visit them at home, these images were taken all over the UK.
