100 Elephants

This a series referencing the different metaphors that exist within the symbol of the elephant. This can be taken from the observation of the human unconscious, to literary references, as well the elephant as a metaphor for human experience. Like human beings, the elephant is a social creature known to express many emotions. The White Elephant, Ganesha, the elephant never forgets, and the elephant in the room all serve as examples of this narrative. This is an ongoing series that will be finished once I've made the 100th elephant.
