Description
In this thought-provoking painting, an endangered white rhino is depicted in a serene moment, peacefully resting atop a giant slice of lemon. The juxtaposition of the rhino and the lemon slice creates an intriguing visual contrast, inviting viewers to contemplate its deeper symbolism. The lemon, typically associated with freshness, vitality, and zest, serves as a stark reminder of the fragility and vulnerability of the rhino's existence. It symbolizes the bitter reality of the rhino's endangered status, while also representing the potential for rejuvenation and hope. The painting prompts us to reflect on the urgent need for conservation efforts and the delicate balance between the survival of endangered species and the impact of human actions on their habitats.
Artwork Features
Bringing all your favourite things to life, from that pair of converse sneakers you wear every day to your most precious teacup, and pairing them with some of the most endangered animals in the world, Gillie and Marc are giving a unique perspective on the things we consider to be most important. Inspired by pop artists such as Andy Warhol and mixed with beautifully realistic animals using their iconic thick texture painting style, this Pop Realism collection is bringing the wild into our lives in a striking yet joyous experience.
Over the past five years, Gillie and Marc spent hours sketching and studying wildlife, travelling the globe to meet these animals up close. These sketches have now been brought to life in vibrant colour with love and passion. Each painting is created as a team with both the artists bringing their own emotion into every painting.
