Wild Kong is a signature Richard Orlinski piece. It declares itself invincible with its open mouth and fearsome teeth as it beats its chest with mighty fists. But the ferocious beast is also capable of tenderness, an allegory for the perfect man according to the artist. The piece sees the sculptor draw inspiration from an iconic film character: King Kong. Which is the most savage, man and beast? Richard Orlinski questions mankind and its innate animal nature.

The panda by Richard Orlinski features sharp facets yet its round ears, nose and stomach take centre stage. These facets create pools of light and dark that bring to mind its two-tone fur. Richard Orlinski highlights the wild animal’s strength and its incredible gentleness. He depicts it seated, stocky, quietly eating a stick of bamboo, unaware of the danger hanging over it.
