Introspection

Original Work by Claire Milligan

​

"Introspection" is the name I have given to this majestic gorilla painting. With the dark and moody colour palette, I wanted to create an enigmatic atmosphere, capturing the gorilla in a moment of deep thought and introspection.

​

With the gorilla's intense gaze, half-hidden in darkness, I invite this painting to draw you into its world of profound contemplation. With a dark colour palette I wanted to accentuate the creature's introspective nature, leaving you wondering about the thoughts that occupy its mind and to create a narrative that symbolises the complexities of the gorilla's emotions and intelligence. I want to leave the interpretation of the gorilla's thoughts open to your imagination and for this painting to serve as a poignant reminder of the deep connection between humans and the animal kingdom, prompting you to reflect on the shared complexities of thought and emotion that bind all living beings together.
