Husband

This is perhaps the most touching and surreal metaphor in the artist's series of works dedicated to the emigration experience. An elephant—a symbol of immense, calm strength and reliability—sits by a campfire in a landscape entirely atypical for it, reminiscent of a northern coniferous forest. It is a brilliant illustration of how a loved one becomes 'home' and the main pillar of support in a foreign country. The artist masterfully conveys a sense of safety and coziness amidst a vast, as-yet unfamiliar space.
