This print is connected to Hirsute, Wilgefortis and Self Perspectives. It involves a common theme of the animal instinct in human nature. Initially I had intended to add lots of hair to the legs but instead started to experiment by off-set printing it onto gesso-ed panels which I then abraded and scratched to expose hair underneath.
