$1,000.00

ARTWORK ID: 2018

CATEGORY: North West Flora and Fauna

ARTIST STATEMENT:

My artwork captures the intricate form and biological resilience of the Tropical Rock Lobster, a species deeply woven into the Pilbara's rich aquatic fauna. By using pen and ink, I remove the distraction of color, allowing the complexity of its textured exoskeleton and flowing antennae to take focus.

This species fascinates me not only for its striking form but also for its quiet immortality, continuously regenerating and growing throughout its life. In the ever-changing marine landscape of the Pilbara, the rock lobster stands as a symbol of endurance, adaptation, and the hidden intricacies of nature's design.

MEDIUM: Pen & Ink

ARTWORK DIMENSIONS (width x height): 500mm x 400mm

WEIGHT (approx): 1.5kg

ARTIST LOCATION: ROCKINGHAM, WA
