Bear

Series: Beasts of the Urban Wilderness
Artist: Maya Fernandes Kempe

White bust of an anthropomorphic bear with t-shirt, earrings and piercings. “Beasts of the urban wilderness – these are tender and wild beings that make up the fauna of the myth of the city. The works do not appeal to a transcendence in the face of human nature, on the contrary, they invite with great elegance to what cannot be denied in humans: being an animal. ”(Ivo Lima Carmo)
