In the vast barren landscapes of the southern Kalahari, Sociable Weaver Birds assume ownership of the telephone poles that cut across their habitat.Their burgeoning nests are at once inertly statuesque and teeming with life. The twigs and grass collected to build these nests combine to give strangely recognisable personalities to the otherwise inanimate poles.
New print release: this week we have teamed up with South Korean illustrator Madame Lolina to bring you her work Communion_My Unicorn to benefit The Kids In Need Foundation. This pieces is not only lovely to look at, but holds a very personal meaning for the artist:
The print, Communion_My Unicorn, describes the scene of a boy who was left out because of a horn on his head. One day, he met a unicorn who had a horn like him. They sympathized with each other and were consoled. It is reminiscent of my childhood – my unique characteristics created loneliness and I sometimes had a hard time.
Madame Lolina has chosen to pair with the Kids In Need Foundation because in a society of wide-spread capitalism, she wants to help children in the marginalized zone of education.
This print is available in multiple sizes. It was digitally signed by the artist. The 8×10 and 11×14 prints are numbered by The Working Proof, and the 16×20 prints come with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. Learn more here. Read our interview with Madam Lolina here. You can buy the print here.
