Big Cats


An animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language.” – Martin Buber


Have you ever stared into the eyes of a lion..a leopard or a cheetah?

Eye contact with a big cat is a very intimidating and an introspective experience

You are in their habitat, the power dynamics between you and these exquisite animals is very clear

You are in awe, the respect you have for this amazing creature is overwhelming

As your eyes meet their piercing gaze, your own mortality will confront you

You will question yourself, and every time you glance at their image

You will be travel into those deep aspects of your mind and reflect upon those thoughts provoked.
