Wolf Reference

I had an exhibition of digital drawings entitled Wolf at An Tobar in 2012, this was themed on the "Green fire" quotation from Aldo Leopold's book; A Sand County Almanac.

There are a few examples of work from the exhibition in the Wolf section of this website. The exhibition was of the work in progress type, during the course of working for this exhibition I developed a greater awareness of the power of the Wolf as an iconic representative of notions of the wild and the concept of "wilderness" and the development of environmental ethics.

 

Below are various sources of reference and links to websites which I found useful for research;
