The gorilla is an animal that fascinates me because of how closely related it is to us. In its expressions, its gaze, and its demeanor, there is something deeply human. At times gentle, pensive, almost shy; at other times, impressive in its strength and presence, it offers a glimpse of an emotional depth that never ceases to move me.

It is this intensity, this sensitivity that shines through in its gaze, that I particularly love to bring out in leather.
