Description
This sculpture portrays an endangered rhino standing atop a skull finished in a rich gold leaf finish, creating a striking contrast between the force of life and the shadow of extinction. The rhino—immensely strong yet increasingly at risk—symbolizes the vulnerability of species threatened by poaching and habitat loss, while the golden skull beneath it reflects both the irreplaceable value of what we may lose and the destructive forces that endanger it. Yet the rhino’s steady, grounded stance introduces a sense of hope, suggesting resilience and the possibility of renewal. Together, they form a powerful reminder not only of the consequences of exploitation but also of our ability to protect endangered wildlife and help these magnificent animals reclaim a future filled with promise.
