Out of Africa captures the nostalgic romance of early expeditions — a visual narrative of wilderness, wonder, and quiet adventure, set against the bold contrast of a zebra hide.
Scattered purposefully are the tools of a bygone explorer: speckled quail eggs nestled in iron bowls, a weathered map, a hunting knife, binoculars, a flask, a tobacco pipe, and a worn leather hat. Each item whispers of long journeys and untold stories. Ivory-hued kudu horns sweep gracefully through the scene, while a vertebrae column brings a raw, primal elegance — bones of the land itself.
The palette is earthen and timeless: ochre browns, bone white, iron black, and feathered textures. There’s a touch of danger, a breath of reverence, and an air of silent awe for the unknown.
This isn’t just a still life. Out of Africa is a feeling — of being far from everything, and yet close to something ancient and alive. A tribute to the wild heart of Africa, and to the souls brave enough to wander there.
