Panther
Drawings, India InksPortrait of a panther composed of organic and floral motifs. The panther’s face was used as the outline for an expression uniquely using motifs and shapes.
Despite its strong force as a predator, this species is in danger of extinction because of mankind. I’ve tried to create a balanced composition inspired by the animal’s eternal beauty and other ornaments to highlight its magnificence. The fragile details are meant to remind us of how vulnerable this beauty is and that if we don’t do something to change our respect of nature, it could disappear.
I’ve photocopied this drawing multiple times and stuck them up in the streets of Paris. There are quite a few on the left bank, around the Marais and near Montmartre.
