Recently, he is working with many colors of ribbon and creating various animals expression. This simple repetition of twist and bend sublime such rich expression of animals and it often capture the essence of life. every animals are delicately made by hands. colors are carefully chosen. so, none of the animals are the same.
They are all different and special.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
