Run Tiger of the Quarry run

(2018)
Various materials

A tiger eludes the artist as he wishes to capture it in an image, the animal is fast and seems to double, the artist’s vision wobbles until the tiger again becomes one, now as still as marble. Lurking behind the tip of his brush the artist takes a snap, but the moment the bristle settles on the surface the tiger transforms and reappears as a bandit, with his gaze the artist follows its traces but those lead in the opposite direction and in that moment of bewilderment, forgetful of everything, the form appears.
