Leaving the Perch

A$220.00
sold out

Location: Kruger National Park, South Africa

Caught at the moment it leaves its perch to forage, this lilac-breasted roller reveals colours that are less obvious when its wings are folded. Turquoise and deep blue spread across the open sky, while the slender branch records where the movement began. Rollers take their name from their rolling aerial displays, but here the action is a departure in search of food. The photograph turns that brief transition into a sustained view of the bird’s form.

Artwork #11 — A011
Acrylic, Metallic
Size: 45 × 30 cm (WxH)

Limited edition of 300, across all sizes and materials combined.
