About the Item

'Rain Mother' Namiri Plains, Tanzania 2025 24 × 36 in / 61 × 91.4 cm / Edition of 20 31 × 46.5 in / 78.7 × 118.1 cm / Edition of 15 40 × 60 in / 101.6 × 152.4 cm / Edition of 10 60 × 90 in / 152.4 × 228.6 cm / Edition of 7 "As the short rains return to the Namiri Plains, the savannah stirs to life. Wildebeest calves find their legs in the tall grass, migratory birds wheel overhead, and the big cats stretch into the season’s cooler dawns with sharpened purpose. I watched this little family huddle together on the granite kopjes, lapping rain from each other's fur. Biologists refer to this behavior as allogrooming, which strengthens social bonds, helps remove parasites, and, in moments like this, serves as a clever means of rehydration without leaving the safety of the perch." -Paul Nicklen Paul Nicklen's Biography: Paul Nicklen (Canadian) is a visual artist and marine biologist who has documented both the beauty and the plight of our planet for over 20 years. Paul’s photography informs and connects by creating an emotional bond with wild subjects in extreme conditions. After a 20-year career of photographing for journalistic publications like National Geographic, Paul’s perpetuating dream is to revisit his archives for the true artistic gems and release them to the world. His ongoing journey is to continue photographing intimate, evocative, powerful subject matter to create a thought-provoking body of work. Paul hopes his viewers look into the eyes of the animals in his photographs and fall in love with their vulnerability. In addition to being one of the world’s most renowned nature photographers, Paul is a well-known speaker, TED Talks participant, author, and National Geographic Fellow. In the past two decades, Paul has collaborated with scientists, filmmakers, conservationists, and explorers to create awareness and inspire action for global issues such as climate change. Paul has garnered more than 30 of the highest awards given to any photographer in his field, earning a global following of celebrities, conservationists, and fans.
