About the artwork

A young ostrich looks straight into the world with a mix of curiosity and bravado. The large eyes and slightly raised eyebrows give the portrait an almost comic expression. Each feather on its fluffy head is made up of fine black threads playfully twisting together.

The strength of this work lies in its character: a combination of lightness and detail that immediately evokes a smile. Perfect for an interior where humour, nature or individuality is allowed to speak. Or for someone with a love of birds or African wildlife.

The portrait is composed of many loose black threads, which give the work a playful character. Together, they create a vivid image full of texture and movement. The subject shows subtle densities and the background of handmade paper gives the work a warm, natural base.

This work is part of my 'wire portraits' series of human and animal portraits, including endearing baby animals. To be found in my personal shop.

This series grew out of my love for materials with character and story. Handmade paper fascinates me. Every fibre, every irregularity is unique and depends on the origin of the paper. The thin black thread makes it fragile and in some places almost seems to merge into the paper itself. This combination, together with my passion for creating portraits of people and animals, ensures that I have worked on each artwork with great pleasure and dedication. Each portrait is carefully constructed using Artificial Intelligence, with an eye for detail and a deep sense of connection. A unique collaboration between human feeling and digital imagination.
