About the Item
The artwork is print on silk and it is limited edition.
"In our family of crocodiles, everything from scandals to idylls.
Croco Friends tells the whimsical yet thought-provoking story of an unusual friendship—a young, carefree crocodile who finds companionship in a bird typically seen as a mere servant to its kind. While the elder crocodiles, steeped in tradition, view this bond with suspicion, the small crocodile and its feathered friend defy expectations, embodying trust, curiosity, and the joy of unexpected connections.
Set within an ornate, mosaic-framed world, the artwork balances grandeur with intimacy. The symmetrical arrangement of crocodiles suggests hierarchy, guardianship, and the weight of societal norms, . Through intricate details and layered symbolism, Croco Friends explores themes of tradition versus change, power versus tenderness, and the beauty of forging one’s own path.
A statement piece blending classical aesthetics with contemporary surrealism, this artwork is an exquisite addition to collections that value conceptual storytelling, symbolic animal themes, and the interplay between structure and spontaneity."
