2 of 5 in the Habitat Series

RECENTLY ON DISPLAY AT ART BASEL: MIAMI.  DECEMBER 2021

The concept behind this series is that in effort to preserve certain species of animals we confine them in man-made "habitats" that mimic their natural environment.  While this is based in good intention, these glorious creatures are now essentially caged in an artificial world, unable to live the life they were intended to live.  

The background of each piece is a brick wall with a "spray painted" representation of their environment, essentially creating an artificial urban jungle.
