Description
This sculpture portrays an endangered elephant standing atop a skull finished in a rich gold leaf finish, creating a powerful juxtaposition between life and looming extinction. The elephant—majestic yet vulnerable—symbolizes the fragility of species threatened by human activity, while the golden skull beneath it represents both the value of what we stand to lose and the destructive forces driving that loss. Yet the elephant’s pose adds a note of hope, suggesting resilience and the possibility of renewal. Together, they form a reminder not only of the consequences of exploitation but also of our capacity to change course, protect what remains, and help threatened species reclaim a future filled with possibility.
