Curator Review
Tropical Rhino
Jewel tones and glistening golden crystals, ornament this sparkling sculpture. On the form of his regal subject, Kedria has composed a mural dedicated to both flora and fauna. The delicate hummingbird contrasts beautifully with the strength and stance of the Rhino, creating balance whilst stimulating the eye to imagine movement. This graceful and resplendent piece exudes Kedria’s passionate exploration of nature, with a refreshingly contemporary flair. - E.E. Jacks Michigan United States of America
