ARTIST STATEMENT
Evolving in isolation for millions of years, these beings are a living record of ancient lineages - preserving a version of the world long vanished elsewhere. This series honours that deep time and their quiet endurance.
Look into their eyes and you’ll see how fully they live in the immediacy of life. They remind us that we are animals too - and that we once lived with the same attunement to the natural world. If you listen closely, their whispers call us back to that connection. And it is in that return that we remember how to be the best version of ourselves.
