Artist Statement: This piece is meant to depict the struggles of a polar bear. It’s cold, as shown by the blue-purple color pallet overtop the yellow. It’s tired and starving so it has laid down to rest. I was inspired to make this sculpture due to my love of Alaskan wildlife and personal concerns about the climate crisis.
