ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Defense Mechanism is a continuation of my minimalist silhouette work themed around wildlife animals.This work examines the vigor of nature through bold colors and expressive drips which is balanced with the stark, flat black background. Doing so individualizes the animal as a martyr for their species and their survival in the modern world. Using a bandsaw, I hand-cut the silhouette from FSC certified wood. It is then mounted to a small block to allow a floating affect off of the main panel. Signed and wired for hanging.
