Description
When Rhinos Fall, They Rise Again depicts an endangered rhino standing atop a collapsing pile of Jenga blocks, transforming a familiar game into a powerful metaphor for fragility and resilience. The Jenga tower symbolizes the interconnected systems—ecological, political, and social—that support wildlife, where the removal of even a single block can trigger widespread collapse. As the structure tilts and begins to fall, it reflects the ongoing destabilization caused by habitat loss, poaching, and climate change. Yet the rhino’s presence at the summit conveys defiance and hope: despite standing on an unstable foundation, it embodies survival, strength, and the possibility of renewal. The sculpture suggests that while the systems beneath endangered species may be failing, their persistence urges humanity to rebuild more carefully, block by block, before the fall becomes irreversible.
