This video of an elephant painting a representative figure - a self-portrait? – is beyond amazing. It is a beautifully choreographed performance, never boring, often suspenseful, playing itself out over the course of the 8 1/2 minute video (there are some edits, it looks like) in a way that holds the attention all the way to the end, the end providing both surprise and satisfaction. I have watched it a few times, captivated each time.
I would like to know much more about the context of this elephant painting.
Who is this elephant? UPDATE: Her name is Hong. She is 8 years old.

It is amazing. It's amazing in more ways than I can think to comment at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI'm with David Lee. This opens up so many issues.
