The Leopard in the Red Tree, 2026
In this work, the leopard rests on the branch of a red tree, suspended above a landscape of mountains, water and architecture. From its elevated position, it gazes towards the horizon with a serene yet watchful presence, as though guarding the territory below.
The tree’s intense red introduces a vital energy and transforms a natural element into an almost symbolic presence. Its great branch crosses the composition and connects the animal with the landscape, while the shifting scale alters perception and places the scene somewhere between reality and dream.
Below, the house and tennis court represent an ordered, constructed space. Above them, the leopard belongs to another realm: one of freedom, intuition and inner strength. The work brings these two worlds—the human and the wild—together within an imagined landscape where both can coexist.
