In this detailed linocut, a pangolin moves quietly across a sparse Karoo landscape, itsarmored scales carefully articulated through intricate line work. Above the animal, adense cloud of symbolic forms and dreamlike iconography unfurls, suggestingmemories, ancestral knowledge, and hidden narratives carried within the creature. Thecontrast between the grounded presence of the pangolin and the swirling symbolic skyevokes a sense of myth and memory—an inner world unfolding above a humble,endangered being whose existence carries both ancient wisdom and quiet resilience.
