Description

This artwork is a whimsical and striking illustration of a silverback gorilla dressed as a ballerina, blending raw power with delicate elegance. The gorilla, rendered in fine black ink lines, wears a detailed pink tutu and leotard, posed mid-dance with arms extended gracefully like a seasoned ballet performer.

The background is filled with a collage of stamped words in varying fonts and shades—“BIPEDAL,” “LOVE,” “TUTU,” “DANCE,” “SILVERBACK,” “BALLET,” “APE,” “JUNGLE,” and “WILDLIFE”—repeating across a soft pink backdrop. These words add texture and thematic contrast, emphasizing the blend of wild nature and refined art.

The piece playfully challenges expectations about strength, grace, and identity, fusing the primal with the poetic in a bold, humorous, and visually compelling way. Large Original drawing depicting a gorilla in a tutu. Hand drawn, signed by artist unframed. RRP £1250. Any questions just ask. Thanks for looking.
