About the Artwork:
“Lately I’ve had reoccurring thoughts on paintings that revolve around beastly creatures that have god-like influences, yet are capable of death and decay due to human presence. Similar to the gods in Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke. There’s a sense of beauty and sadness when a creature as majestic as a tiger for instance, slowly decays back into the earth. With its own body brings nourishment to the environment around it yet its own physical presence disappears forever. But this is just the way life is. The world continues to flourish through the death of creatures within it.” – Ama Absolute
