Yesterday my Amur Leopard mural, painted in Vladivostok in 2017, was torn to the ground and turned into dust to make room for a new development. A very powerful visual metaphor for the crisis that our animals are facing around the world! With only 84 remaining in the wild, the Amur leopard is the rarest big cat on earth, so it’s sadly fitting that it should be the first of my #ToTheBoneProject murals to disappear 😢 It’s also a good reminder of how important it is that we support organizations such as @far_eastern_leopards that are doing great work to protect these incredible animals for future generations! Thank you so much to the people of Vladivostok for all the kind messages and support, it’s been overwhelming. I will hopefully return soon to bring you a longer lasting mural🤞🏼 . 🎥 @batrshin_ildar @primamedia
