Animal Farm

Orwell wrote a parable that does not age. The cycle began with a simple observation: the people and the animals in my paintings had long been holding the same postures.

Here the animals have human gazes and the people have animal features. The line between them is deliberately blurred.

The central motif is the table. Deals are made across it, things are divided across it, and in the end you can no longer see who is sitting on which side.
