Description
This is a thought-provoking bronze sculpture that fuses the natural grace of the North African ostrich with the dynamic energy of modern skateboarding. This sculpture operates as a vibrant metaphor for the challenges faced by the North African ostrich, which has been under threat due to habitat loss and human encroachment. By placing this magnificent bird in an unexpected context of urban recreation, the artist draws attention to the intrusion of human activities into natural environments. The skateboard, an emblem of youthful freedom and agility, sharply contrasts with the ostrich’s natural habitat, emphasizing the urgent need for adaptability in an ever-changing world.
