Bull 24

Rendered in stark monochrome, the buffalo’s immense head emerges from a field of meticulous mark-making, its textured hide reading like a map of lived terrain rather than mere anatomy. The bold, banded horns and lacquered darkness of the ears anchor the composition, while the airy negative space around the form lends the animal a quiet, ceremonial gravity—as if it is both subject and monument. Above and below, the suspended ornamental fragments echo floral or textile motifs, suggesting a dialogue between wilderness and human patterning, where resilience is adorned yet never domesticated.
