Multicolor panels merge with lines and fragmentation to form an energetic lion sculpture, which utilizes upcycled leathers and jacquard fabrics woven from recycled polyester found in the brand's men's and women's collections, to create a truly sustainable installation.

The physicality of its construction is an exercise in aggression and control, the will to explore my own complicity in capitalism.

I was commissioned by Kick Reviews to create a Grizzly archetype after the collectors had taken an inspiring trip to Alaska. This sculpture is made up of every significant Nike of the past ten years.
