(2026) 'ANIMAL'

By a natural byproduct of the circumstances that prompted the project, I was very keen to go back to the previous 'Dancing Bear' work and use that bear again.

I didn't know what direction I wanted to go with it however. Originally I wanted something vaguely humanoid. So I played with ideas of someone inside an ill-fitting suit that was falling apart, or otherwise somehow damaged.
