| 説明 | Sponsor - CofundsArtist - Oliver DeanDesign - 'Animal Mineral'What inspired the design?This design was inspired by Darwin’s Theory of evolution and the role of humankind in protecting vulnerable species. The Giraffe stands as a clear example of “Decent with modification” through its distinctive features. Over generations, animals respond to environmental survival requirements through every biologically conceivable manner. This striking design would mean the giraffe would be recovered in a reflective metal as an extract of mineral sourced from the home of the giraffe) to demonstrate that not only do wild animals evolve to “Reflect” survival needs but as humans we are responsible for the welfare and longevity of animals who are affected by our excavation of minerals from fragile environments. In this Artwork, the giraffe’s identity is disguised/or shrouded by the mineral that surrounds it. About the SponsorCofunds is an ‘investment platform’.
