This work portrays a black rhino whose powerful horns have unexpectedly become aliving garden of daisies. Drawn to this unlikely bloom, sunbirds gather upon the horns,perching and feeding as if the rhino itself has transformed into part landscape. Themassive animal—symbol of strength and endurance—quietly hosts this delicateecosystem, suggesting a moment of metamorphosis where identity shifts from solitarycreature to living habitat. In this encounter between weight and lightness, the rhinobecomes something more than itself, a bridge between wild power and fragile beauty.
