A compact sculptural totem, this gilded animal form balances raw facture with a near-sacred sheen, as if the creature has been excavated from memory and hastily consecrated. The jagged planes and carved striations catch light unevenly, turning the body into a shifting topography where vulnerability and resolve coexist. Suspended by a slender metal arc and anchored to a dark, weighty base, it stages a quiet drama between lift and gravity—suggesting endurance, captivity, or the thin line between protection and display.
