Description
In Taxi Elephant, a lone elephant stands in the middle of a dimly lit New York street, towering over a classic yellow taxi. The contrast between the massive, organic presence of the elephant and the rigid, geometric structures of the urban landscape evokes a sense of displacement and wonder. The deep shadows and soft reflections on the wet pavement create a cinematic mood, reinforcing the surreal quality of the scene. This piece invites viewers to reflect on the relationship between nature and human development, questioning whether these two worlds can truly coexist.
Artwork Features
In this highly expressive and passionate style Gillie and Marc have let their emotions run free in this explosive collection of freehand painting. Inspired by the styles of Brett Whiteley, Francis Bacon, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gillie and Marc have combined enamel paint with oil pastel to breathe life into the worlds most endangered species. 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.
