A 2.5D brick-built artwork inspired by the LEGO® Botanical, Art, and Animal series, blending the organic beauty of plants with the vitality of animals in a single frame. Drawing on the elephant traditions of India and Thailand, such as Rajasthan’s Jaipur Elephant Festival, where elephants are adorned with vivid patterns, and the image of an elephant holding a brush, I imagined the elephant becoming the one who decorates rather than the one being decorated. Its face and ears bloom with flowers and leaves, while its trunk reaches beyond the frame, holding a brush over a palette of flowers as if painting itself in blossoms, dissolving the boundary between painting and reality. The trunk is articulated for a variety of poses.
