About the artwork

This surrealistic photograph shows an unusual interaction between two animals against a background of dry, tall grass. The photo has been artificially edited to create a specific atmosphere, by saturating the colours and adjusting the contrasts.

To the right of the image, a chimpanzee sits on a flat surface, a wooden board. The chimp is holding a bright red object, a smartphone, and looking at it with concentration.

On the left side of the picture, on the same surface, is a leopard. The predator is looking at the chimpanzee with an intense gaze. The animals are placed in an environment reminiscent of a savannah, with a background of yellow-brown, tall grass.

What is most striking about the picture is the bizarre combination of elements: a chimpanzee working on a technological object while a predator looks on. This creates a narrative and challenges the viewer to think about the relationship between nature, technology and animals.
