GREY NOT GREY

Grey. It makes no statement whatever; it evokes neither feelings nor associations: it is really neither visible nor invisible. Its inconspicuousness gives it the capacity to mediate, to make visible, in a positively illusionistic way, like a photograph. It has the capacity that no other colour has, to make ‘nothing’ visible. - Gerhard Richter, 1975

A Dark Detailed Binturong or Bearcat (Arctictis binturong) These animals are amazing. They remind me of an evil red panda, though their behaviour isn’t evil. These beautiful animals play a huge role in their native habitat of South East Asia. Their diet is largely fruit based and they spread the seeds through their droppings, though they also eat rodents. They have long prehensile tails and its great watching these agile creatures navigate the trees.
